Mycotoxin Testing Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report by Type (Aflatoxins, Fumonisins, Ochratoxin, Zearalenone, Trichothecenes, Deoxynivalenol, Patulin, Others), by Technology (Chromatography- & Spectroscopy-Based, Immunoassay-Based), by Sample (Feed, Food); by Region (North America, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, Rest of the World) – Market Size & Forecasting (2017-2028)

Market Dynamics:

The Mycotoxin Testing Market was valued at USD 826.8 Million in 2019 and it is projected to reach USD 1,551.0 Million by 2028 with a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period, 2017-2028.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (Italy), approximately 25% of the food produced globally contains harmful chemicals that are toxic in nature and are called mycotoxins. These can seriously harm humans and animals by treating infections. Hence there is an extensive need for mycotoxin testing, which will propel the demand of mycotoxin testing market.

Mycotoxin Testing MarketMycotoxin Testing Market Statistics (2017-2028)

Mycotoxins are nothing but toxic metabolites that are produced by fungi, found in food & feed products and they are invisible and tasteless. The heavy production of mycotoxin is observed in food products such as grains, cereals, nuts, spices, oilseeds, oils & starches, bread & cookies, milk & dairy products, dried fruit, and coffee. All these are daily needed products and are commonly contaminated by mycotoxins. The prevalence of mycotoxin leads to the necessity to test the mycotoxins in these foods, to ensure the safety of food products. All these factors will reflect on the significant growth of the mycotoxin testing market.

Mycotoxins are chemically stable at both high and low temperatures and temperature treatments such as cooking and freezing do not destroy all mycotoxins which are present in food products.

Globally, in most countries, there are requirements for mycotoxin testing since it is one of the major public health issues. Some of the mycotoxins are highly toxic and can cause cancer. They also weaken the immune systems of our body and cause allergies. Hence consumer awareness about the presence of mycotoxins is increasing for the last few years which are further propelling the demand for mycotoxin testing. However, the high cost of equipment and capabilities to provide better testing service may restrain the growth of the mycotoxin market.

Some of the key Impact Factors:

  • Lack of food control systems, infrastructure, and technology is boosting the mycotoxin testing market in the developing countries
  • Lack of food safety and resources 
  • Increase in the consumption of fast food
  • The rise in population can enhance the market growth

Mycotoxin Testing MarketMycotoxin Testing By Market Segmentation (2017-2028)

The mycotoxin testing market is primarily segmented based on type (aflatoxins, fumonisins, ochratoxin, zearalenone, trichothecenes, deoxynivalenol, patulin, others), by technology (Chromatography & Spectroscopy-Based, High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Liquid Chromatography, Gas Chromatography, Coupled Chromatography, Tandem Chromatography, Immunoassay-Based), by sample (feed, food) and based on geographic region. 

Type Outlook 

Based on types the mycotoxin testing market is segmented by various types such as aflatoxins, fumonisins, ochratoxin, zearalenone, trichothecenes, deoxynivalenol, patulin, and others. The aflatoxins segment is accounted for the largest market size globally as compared to others because of its extensive prevalence in the agricultural products. The aflatoxins are present in products such as corn, peanuts, groundnuts, cotton seeds, and tree nuts which are highly consumed by humans daily and this will propel the demand for mycotoxin testing market.

Fumonisins are found world-wide as a contaminant of maize (corn), which has a detrimental impact on animals. For example, it causes liver cancer in rats, pulmonary edema in pigs and leukoencephalomalacia in horses. Hence major market players are investing in R & D activities of mycotoxin testing technologies to find out the exact solution over these harmful mycotoxins.

In the case of ochratoxin, the fungal species which produces ochratoxin is frequently found in human food and animal feed like cereal products. In humans, ochratoxin causes Balken endemic nephropathy (BEN), a chronic kidney disease associated with tumors of the renal system and others that are affecting the human body system. All these factors will drive the mycotoxin testing market in the coming years.

Technology Outlook

Based on technology, the mycotoxin testing market has been segmented into Chromatography- & Spectroscopy-Based and Immunoassay-Based. 

The chromatography- & spectroscopy-based technology is projected to experience faster growth during the forecast period because of the introduction of faster liquid chromatography (LC) technologies for high-performance of liquid chromatography (LC). Similarly, immunoassay-based technology is highly selective bio analytical technology that measures the presence of analytes ranging from small molecules to macromolecules in a solution through the use of an antibody or bio recognition agent. 

Sample Outlook

Based on the sample, the mycotoxin testing market has been segmented into the Feed and Food. By the sample, the food segment is projected to account for larger market share during the forecast period with higher CAGR; because of the presence of mycotoxin in food has detrimental effects on humans as well as on animals.
