Fungal Staining Reagent Market Overview

According to the latest research by Future Market Insights, Fungal Staining Reagent market is set to experience growth during the year 2021-2031. Fungal stains continue to be an important tool in the diagnostic staging of tissue laboratories for characterizing infectious microorganisms.

Dermatophytes, or superficial fungal infections involving the skin, rarely pose serious health problems for men. However, systemic fungal infections caused by microorganisms such as Cryptococcusneoformans and Candidaalbicans can cause life-threatening infections, especially in immunocompromised people.

It is important to consider the fungal disease in relation to the 2019 pandemic of coronavirus infection (COVID19) because the symptoms of some fungal disease May be similar to those of COVID19, including fever, cough and shortness of breath. Clinical tests are needed to determine whether a person has a fungal infection or COVID19 to provide adequate treatment.

What is driving Demand for Fungal Staining Reagent?

Fungal infections are common in people infected with HIV/AIDS, organ transplant patients, cancer patients, hospitalized patients, stem cell transplant patients and people with weakened immune system. Therefore, when signs of fungal infection are observed on H&E staining, fungal stains are often urgently ordered by a surgical pathologist. Schiff’s reagent and hexamine silver solution stain. Grocott's Silver (GMS) staining is perhaps the most widely used fungal stain.

Some pathologists order acid Schiff (PAS) staining regularly, expecting to achieve faster and more reliable staining. This method is one of the most frequently used methods in tissue laboratories. Relatively simple and reliable to run even with inexperienced hands. Increasing prevalence of fungal infections propel the growth of fungal staining reagent market.

Increasing Incidence of Fungal Diseases Likely to Augment Fungal Staining Reagent Sales

People with severe COVID-19 who seem to be in an intensive care unit (ICU) are particularly vulnerable to bacterial or fungal infections. Co-infection with these fungi is increasing in frequency, reported, and can be associated with serious illness and death.

Awareness of the potential for co-infection with fungi is essential to reduce delays in diagnosis and treatment in order to prevent serious illness and death from these infections. Thus, rise in incidence of Fungal Diseases is expected to boost the demand for Fungal Staining Reagent.

USA and Canada Fungal Staining Reagent Market Outlook

Medical-associated infections, such as candidiasis, are a major concern in the United States. With advances and changes in medical practice, there is a possibility that new drug-resistant bacteria may appear in the medical field. According to CDC, Based on fungal disease management coding data, direct medical expenses were $7.2 billion in 2017.

Including overhead and social costs can result in much higher total costs. In 2017, there were more than 75,000 hospitalizations and approximately 9 million outpatient visits for fungal diseases. However, these figures may be significantly underestimated due to lack of diagnostics and lack of coding. In 2017, there were approximately 23,000 cases of invasive Candida.
