Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Market - Growth Opportunities & Technology Developments by 2026

New York City, 19 February 2019: According to a new study published by Polaris Market Research, the global Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Market is anticipated to reach USD 16.6 billion by 2025. Next generation sequencing (NGS), is a DNA sequencing technology. The process of DNA sequencing, which decides the exact order of nucleotides inside a DNA molecule, is known as Next generation sequencing. Next generation sequencing is high throughput sequencing.  Using next generation sequencer, the process produces a million DNA molecules and RNA sequences by allowing rapid nucleotide sequencing. Roche 454 sequencing and Illumina sequencing are the modern technologies of next generation sequencing. In comparison to Sanger’s sequencing method, the next generation sequencing is much cost-effective technique that provides better outcomes for DNA sequencing. An entire human genome can be sequenced in a single day using next generation sequencing, however, the Sanger sequencing technology, used to decode the human genome, required over a decade to bring the final summary. 

By providing high flexibility, speed, throughput, and reduced sequencing cost, the introduction of next generation sequencing technologies has brought significant changes in sequencing technologies. In the single sequencing run, the next generation sequencing has ability to generate of nucleotide sequence data. The applications of next generation sequencing are in the field of cancer research, genetic disease research, personalized medicines, biological drug discovery, newborn sequencing metgenomics, and agriculture research etc. Moreover, non-coding RNA expression profiling, identification of binding sites on transcriptional factor, and re- sequencing of targets are some more applications of next generation sequencing.



The adoption of next generation sequencing is mounting for diagnosis of inherited genetic disorders, cancer, HLA typing and identification of infectious diseases as it allows scanning of targeted genome in very small time, and this is expected to propel the growth of global next generation sequencing market over the forecast period.
