Enteric Disease Testing Market is Expected to Reach to USD 3.6 Billion Globally by 2019: Transparency Market Research

According to a new market report published by Transparency Market Research “Enteric Disease Testing Market (Amebiasis, C.difficile Infection, Campylobacteriosis, Cholera, Cryptosporidiosis, E.coli Infection, Giardiasis, H.pylori Infection, Norovirus Infection, Rotavirus Infection, Salmonellosis and Shigellosis) – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 – 2019,” the global enteric disease testing market was valued at USD 3.1 billion in 2012 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.4% from 2013 to 2019, to reach an estimated value of USD 3.6 billion in 2019.


Enteric diseases are major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Developing socio-economic countries with poor drainage, sanitation along with overcrowding and low hygiene awareness account for majority of enteric infection incidences prevailing worldwide. These diseases usually exhibit mild symptoms but if not treated on time can lead to severe complications resulting into death. In order to manage these diseases effectively, their early detection is essential. Various enteric diseases responsible for diarrhea, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, anorexia, weight loss and fever are amebiasis, giardiasis, rotavirus infection, salmonellosis and shigellosis.

Traditionally, diagnosis of enteric infections was relied on culture results of fecal specimen. Today, the world is witnessing a paradigm shift from culture to EIA (enzyme immunoassaya) and PCR (polymerase chain reaction) based tests owing to advantages associated with these newer testing methods. EIA and PCR tests offer enhanced sensitivity and specificity compared to culture tests and also give quick results. Globally the market for enteric disease testing is growing at a CAGR of 2.4% under the influence of rising awareness, demand for point of care testing and increasing application of molecular diagnostics. Use of molecular diagnostic products has made diagnosis easy and possible even those strains which once seems to be difficult and impossible. North America and Europe represents the largest regional markets because of rapid demand for molecular based diagnostics and due to high level of awareness among people about the diseases. C.difficile infection is one of the major causes of antibiotic related diarrhea in developed regions.

Various epidemiological sources including CDC and American Association for Clinical Chemistry suggest that C.difficile infection incidence per 100,000 people has increased over the past few decades in United States. In developing nations, frequent travelling to regions where enteric diseases are epidemic is also one of the reasons driving the market growth. Asia-Pacific and Africa have been predicted to grow rapidly during the forecast period. In developing nations of Asia-pacific, Africa and Latin America, the market is also growing due to advent of rapid dipstick tests which can be applied by patient itself. These regions associated with inadequate healthcare infrastructure do not posses substantial number of laboratories to perform laboratory based tests.


Thus rapid dipstick test kits being inexpensive and easy to use are widely accepted in these regions for managing enteric illness. Continuously improving economy and rising healthcare expenditure in these regions are also anticipated to drive the market. The market is also growing due to emergence of new strains; sources from Eurosurveillance suggest that the norovirus infection is increasing worldwide including United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Japan and Australia due to emergence of new strain of genotype II.4 (GII.4) that is also known as Sydney strain.

Some of the major companies leading the market for enteric disease testing are DiaSorin, Cepheid, Bio-Rad, Trinity Biotech, Biomerica, Becton Dickinson, Meridian Bioscience, Alere and bioMerieux.

Asteroids Brought Vitamin B3 to Earth – New Study Reveals

A new research has revealed that the earthly stores of vitamin B3 may have been delivered by asteroids during the early days of earth’s formation. This study has now, time-again, proved that many extraterrestrial materials have played large roles in initiating life on earth. 

Earlier works have always hinted that vitamin B3 must’ve been formed on earth through non-biological processes and that an extra-terrestrial adulteration could be the possible reason behind its availability on the planet.

Vitamin B3, also called niacin or nicotinic acid, is considered fundamental in the development of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in living organisms, essential for their metabolism and is considered of very ancient origin.

The research that revealed this possibility involved the study of eight different varieties of carbonaceous (carbon-rich) chondrites (meteorites).

The objects studied contained 30 to 600 parts of B3 molecules per a billion parts of the meteorite’s composition. The study discovered, along with other carboxylic acids, a pattern-less variety of the vitamin B3 in meteorites that resulted from asteroids altered more by liquid water. It can be said that these molecules resulted in a pattern-less form due to their destruction from a prolonged contact with water.

The research also studied situations in artificially modeled interstellar space environments showing that vitamin B3 can be generated on ice grains. 

There is a scientific logic that confirms this assumption of development of vitamin B3 from non-biological sources: biological chemistry produces only those elements that are essential for life but non-biological chemistry can produce everything that is possible from the materials and conditions available.

If we assume that it was a terrestrial change that resulted in the formation of vitamin B, only the core vitamin would have been developed and not its other forms because life generates only the elements that are needed and no other forms of them. Rather, it is the non-biological processes that result in the development of various forms of a similar element.
