middle east and africa tissue processing systems Market

The Middle East and Africa tissue processing systems market is expected to reach US$ 13.23 million by 2027 from US$ 10.27 million in 2019, it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2020 to 2027.

The growth of the Middle East and Africa tissue processing systems market is attributed to key driving factors such as rising prevalence of cancer and increasing number of diagnostic laboratories across Middle East. However, high cost of cancer diagnostics is expected to restrict the market growth during the forecast period.

Tissue processing involves preparing tissues for microscopic analysis by putting them in a tangible medium. It helps provide skinny and high-quality slices that can be mounted on the glass slides and properly stained to indicate normal and abnormal structures. Tissue processing systems are widely used in cancer diagnostic laboratories, where biopsy samples are processed for cancer diagnosis. The growing aging population, prone to chronic diseases such as cancer, drives the demand for regular diagnostic tests. According to the Cancer Association of South Africa, ~115,000 South Africans are diagnosed with cancer every year. Thus, the increasing prevalence of cancer is likely to boost the demand for tissue processors in cancer diagnosis in the coming years. Also, the growing network of diagnostic laboratories across Middle East region is favoring the growth of the market.

The impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the tissue processing systems market in Middle East and Africa has been minor in the last year. Restrictions on cross-border trade in several countries worldwide were the key factors that disrupted the supply and demand of tissue processing products. However, in the long run, the market is expected to grow at a steady rate, owing to the precautions taken during the tissue processing system in Middle East and Africa.
