According to a report by TechSci Research titled “Global Food Allergen Testing Market – Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2028,” the Global Food Allergen Testing Market reached a value of USD 740.10 Million in 2022. It is projected to experience a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.07% during the forecast period of 2024 to 2028. The demand for food allergen testing on a global scale has shown substantial growth in recent times. This expansion of the market can be attributed to various factors, including the increasing prevalence of food allergies, more stringent regulations on allergen labeling, and a rising consumer demand for products free from allergens. Furthermore, advancements in testing methods like PCR, ELISA, and rapid testing kits are anticipated to drive the market’s growth even further. The report on the Global Food Allergen Testing Market offers a comprehensive assessment of the industry, encompassing an in-depth analysis of key segments, trends, drivers, constraints, the competitive landscape, and factors influencing the dynamics of the market.

The escalating prevalence of food allergies worldwide is propelling the expansion of the global food allergen testing market within medical establishments. Food allergies pose a significant public health concern, affecting an increasing number of individuals across the globe. According to the World Health Organization, up to 40% of the global population is affected by food allergies, with industrialized nations and major cities witnessing a rising trend in their prevalence. These allergies can result in chronic illnesses and, in severe cases, can even be life-threatening. Consequently, food allergies have emerged as a significant public health issue, impacting approximately 2-4% of adults and 6-8% of children. Moreover, individuals with food allergies are between two to four times more likely to experience other allergic conditions such as asthma or eczema. In the United States alone, data from Food Allergy Research & Education in 2021 indicates that 1 in 10 adults and 1 in 13 children are affected.

The increasing number of food allergy cases has prompted global public health authorities to implement substantial measures aimed at mitigating allergic reactions and their consequences. Governmental support, awareness campaigns, initiatives from the private sector, and involvement from stakeholders have placed food allergies at the forefront of concerns related to allergies. The implementation of stringent food safety regulations on a global scale is imperative to ensure the safety and integrity of our food supply, safeguarded from harmful contaminants. Nevertheless, challenges arise due to the lack of standardized allergen testing practices, making it difficult to identify and manage allergens present in food products. Discrepancies in testing methods and technologies utilized by different laboratories can lead to inconsistent results, causing confusion when interpreting test outcomes. Additionally, developing economies encounter significant hurdles concerning their food control infrastructure and resources, which can adversely affect both food safety and allergen management. Limited capacities for monitoring and enforcing food safety regulations, inadequate laboratory facilities for allergen testing, and insufficient training and education on food safety and allergen management are prevalent challenges in such contexts.

Food allergies present substantial challenges across many countries. According to data from the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America in 2021, allergies rank as the 6th leading cause of chronic diseases in the United States. Common food allergies include soy, peanuts, milk, eggs, shellfish, seafood, nuts, and almonds, among others. As a result, the demand for food allergen testing has experienced a consistent upward trajectory in recent years. Moreover, various intolerances, such as lactose intolerance, are prevalent in various regions. The heightened awareness regarding food allergies has contributed to the surge in activities related to food testing.

It’s important to note that children constitute the most vulnerable population group when it comes to food allergies. They are also between two to four times more susceptible to developing other allergic conditions like asthma or eczema. The market in question is driven by the increasing number of reported food allergy cases at medical institutions. Additionally, due to the rising prevalence of non-toxic adverse reactions (hypersensitivity), the incidence rate of food allergies is exponentially increasing. As a result, public health authorities worldwide have implemented significant measures aimed at mitigating allergic reactions and their associated consequences.

Furthermore, stringent government regulations across various regions regarding food testing and allergy prevention have led to the proliferation of food testing laboratories. These laboratories have been enhancing their testing capabilities due to heightened concerns about adulteration and pesticide usage during raw material production. Government licenses have been granted to food testing agencies to establish advanced testing facilities.

For example, in September 2021, SGS SA expanded its food testing capabilities by inaugurating the Advanced Center of Testing (ACT) laboratory in Ambattur, Chennai. The ACT laboratory provides robust solutions to the agriculture and food industries, enhancing product quality through swift, precise, and reliable results.

The Global Food Allergen Testing Market is segmented into test type, source, technology, food type, regional distribution, and company.

Based on technology, the global food allergen testing market is classified into immunoassay-based, polymerase chain reaction-based, biosensors-based, and others. The immunoassay-based segment has emerged as the fastest growing segment in the global Food Allergen Testing market and is projected to maintain its supremacy throughout the forecast period. Immunoassays, a type of biochemical test, utilize the binding of antibodies to antigens to detect and quantify specific substances. Within the food industry, immunoassays are employed to analyze both ingredients and the composition of the final product. Apart from allergen testing, they are also utilized for contamination screening. Leveraging immunological responses, these tests offer affordability, expedient results, and high specificity. Enzyme-based immunoassays and radioimmunoassays are the two primary types of immunoassays employed in food analysis.

Based on region, North America segment is expected to grow during the forecast period. Based on regional analysis, the global food allergen testing market is categorized into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the world. North America held the largest market share in 2022, primarily driven by the presence of numerous key players in the region. Moreover, the market growth is further fueled by the increasing demand for food allergen testing in countries like the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. In the United States, allergies rank as the sixth most common chronic disease, with an annual cost exceeding $18 billion, affecting over 50 million Americans. Allergic rhinitis, commonly known as hay fever, presents with symptoms such as sneezing, stuffy or runny nose, watery eyes, and itching of the nose, eyes, or roof of the mouth. These factors are anticipated to contribute significantly to the growth of the food allergen testing market during the review period.

“The market is influenced by various factors, including the substantial growth of global food trade, stringent government regulations, and the increasing prevalence of food allergies. Governments around the world play a crucial role in establishing laws and regulations that establish minimum standards for food businesses in terms of marketing and food safety. As the incidence of allergies rises, governments are enacting additional legislation to regulate agricultural products and food processing facilities. Individuals rely on these regulations to ensure proper labeling of food products and reduce health risks. Consequently, the stringent government regulations are contributing to the growth of the market.

A notable market trend is the growing preference for the ELISA method for allergy testing.
