The global carrier screening market was surpassed at USD 2.48 billion in 2021 and is expected to hit around USD 10.44 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 17.32%from 2022 to 2030.

Carrier screening is performed to diagnose a genetic disorder. It is a genetic test conducted on the patient to identify the gene responsible for a genetic disorder or abnormal chromosomal disorder. It is also performed on the pregnant woman to find out whether the child has the disorder. The test involves the blood, tissue cells of the cheeks, or saliva samples. The disorders like sickle cell anemia, Tay-Sachs disease, cystic fibrosis, fragile X syndrome, and SMA can be identified using these tests. The carrier inherits the abnormal gene from either of the parents.
Molecular tests are performed to detect the mutation by finding the abnormalities in the DNA. Techniques such as NGS are the tools to conduct carrier screening tests. The carrier may have no signs and symptoms of illness. The test is recommended for pregnant women to check whether the baby will have a chance of genetic deformities. It is also advised to the male parent of the child to undergo the carrier screening test. The early disease diagnosis and prevention of these genetic deformities fuel the market growth. For instance, in June 2019, QIAGEN launched an expanded carrier screening panel QIAseq. It is used to detect more than 200 diseases by providing information about the targets and genes.
The increasing application of genetic tests spurs the increase in funding by the government and private bodies which drives the market. Moreover, the screening tests are cost-effective which is one of the key drivers. The key players in the market have opted for various collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions leading to the development of the R&D sector. This enhances the molecular testing market. Increasing launch of novel tests for better diagnosis and treatment footholds the global market. The increasing prevalence of genetic as well as chronic diseases is a driving factor for the growth of the market globally.
