End users, such as healthcare, pharmaceutical and drug discovery companies, may also use this report to understand the level of adoption and technology types used in this environment. Universities and consulting firms may derive in-depth market intelligence with respect to the PCR market holistically.

SCOPE AND FORMAT

The key PCR markets covered in the report are the markets for instruments, reagents, consumables and accessories, software and services, as well as PCR applications and technologies.The PCR instruments market includes buffers and deoxynucleotide triphosphates [dNTPs] (buffers, contamination control kits, dNTP mixes), controls and cDNAs, primers (real-time PCR primers, human linkage mapping sets, mouse mapping primers), PCR enzymes and kits (contamination control kits, general PCR, fast PCR, multiplex PCR, wax beads for hot start PCR, high-fidelity PCR kits and other kits), accessories, reaction plates, adhesive films and thermal cyclers.The other markets include reagents and consumables, and other accessories (PCR plates and frames, PCR tubes, PCR sealers and PCR plastics). The PCR software market includes primer design and sequencing software, PCR analyzer software, integrated software and others.The PCR application market includes research (e.g., genetic testing, gene expression, genetic mapping, tissue typing, hybridization probes, DNA sequencing, the Human Genome Project, forensic science, DNA cloning, bioinformatics and others), diagnosis (a) infectious disease, for example, HIV, tuberculosis, spread of disease organisms, others, (b) cancer and (c) prenatal diagnosis and genetic abnormalities, and drug discovery.The PCR technology market includes inverse PCR, in situ PCR, real-time PCR, reverse transcriptase PCR, nested PCR, long PCR, single cell PCR and others.

METHODOLOGY AND INFORMATION SOURCES

The market estimates in the report are based on both primary and secondary research. Intensive questionnaire and discussion guides were used to gather data from industry participants, key opinion leaders and other market specialists across the targeted geographic segments. The market data are further validated through decision support databases and top-down market analysis. The secondary research was performed through both paid sources and other domain-based subscription sites and other sources such as company websites, Google searches, BCC Research, etc.
