Growing Cases of Antimicrobial Resistance to Augment the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Market Growth
Antimicrobial susceptibility testing is proving to be major breakthrough in detecting drug-related infections. It helps detect resistance, confirm susceptibility, and guide the selection of patient therapy. Moreover, it helps the doctor in drug choice and dosage for difficult-to-treat infections. Antibiotic resistance is a major global health concern due to antibiotic misuse. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing provides minimum inhibitory concentrations within hours at reasonable cost, enabling rapid determination of effective targeted therapies, resulting in few laboratory tests, short hospital stays, and decrease in mortality and morbidity along with associated healthcare expenses. Market Dynamics: The growing cases of antimicrobial resistance worldwide are expected to propel the growth of the antimicrobial susceptibility testing market. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), antimicrobial resistance was one of the ten threats to global health in...
