TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Biochips Market: Affymetrix Inc., Illumina Inc., GE Healthcare Ltd., and Agilent Technologies Inc.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Hardware team said: ”Over the years, numerous drug manufacturers have been outsourcing their drug development processes to contract research organizations. Outsourcing activities reduce manufacturing and distribution costs, ensure quality of service, and reduce lead time. They also help the sourcing companies to manage product demand and to concentrate on other competencies such as innovation and brand building. These contract research organizations employ the latest technologies and sophisticated instruments, and thus increased outsourcing to such organizations is a positive trend for the Global Biochips market.”
According to the report, one of the major drivers is the growing need for high speed diagnosis from patients and doctors. Biochips are specially designed with advanced technology that makes them ultra-efficient, therefore, enhancing their operating speed to a great extent.
Further, the report states that the major challenge for the market is the high cost incurred in the implementation of biochips. The development process of biochips is lengthy as it needs to go through various stages such as design, testing, and implementation. This process is time consuming and expensive.
