The global food pathogen testing market is driven by increasing incidents of food poisoning, rising consumer awareness regarding food safety, use of genetically modified organisms, and stringent regulations by government agencies regarding food safety. However, lack of knowledge and awareness about food safety regulations among manufacturers hamper the market growth. Furthermore, recent advancements in nanobiotechnology, and pathogen testing methods such as immunomagnetic separation and polymerase chain reaction to improve the time taken and sensitivity of pathogen detection present lucrative opportunities for market players during the forecast period.

The global food pathogen testing market is segmented based on type, technology, application, and geography. Based on the type, it is divided into E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria, Campylobacter, and others (Norovirus and Rotavirus). Based on technology, it is segmented into traditional (quantitative culture and qualitative culture), and rapid (convenience, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), an immunoassay). On the basis of application, it is classified into meat & poultry, dairy, processed food, and fruit & vegetable. Geographically, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
