Stringent regulatory requirements pose challenges to global vitamin D testing market growth



The global vitamin D testing market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 32.36% over 2013 to 2018. One of the key factors contributing to the market’s growth is the increase in aging and chronically ill patient populations worldwide. The global vitamin D testing market has also witnessed an increase in product approvals.

The global vitamin D testing market is experiencing a significant increase in product approvals for leading vendors. For instance, Qualigen Inc. received the FDA approval for FastPack Vitamin D Immunoassay for use on its proprietary FastPack System for the rapid determination of vitamin D status and Gold Standard Diagnostics Corp. obtained the FDA clearance for its 25-OH Vitamin D Total ELISA test in July 2013. Moreover, DiaSorin received the FDA clearance for its newly developed LIAISON 25 OH Vitamin D TOTAL assay in February 2012. These product approvals are expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the market.

A major driver influencing the growth of the global vitamin D testing market is the increase in the aging and chronically ill populations worldwide. The majority of the global population is prone to several diseases as a result of changes in their lifestyles and food habits. This increases the demand for various diagnostic procedures, including vitamin D testing. Presently, vitamin D deficiency is associated with several diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart attack and depression. That apart, one of the other major challenges involves the stringent regulatory approval process for vitamin D testing devices that leads to delayed approval of such devices.
