An increase in demand for DNA analysis is likely to spark innovations in the market. In typical forensic services provided by a genetic engineering company, data is gathered from a variety of sources, including serology and DNA analysis, as well as profiling DNA from various sources, such as autopsy and surgery tissue samples, scrapings from blood spatter, and hair with roots, among others. Companies based on biotechnology also provide criminal justice services.

For instance, Promega Corporation's Spectrum C.E. System was released in March 2022. This method is compatible with any 5-, 6-, or 8-color STR analysis chemical for person identification in forensic laboratories. As a result, advancements are likely to fuel segment expansion. Furthermore, the murder rate in the United States increased by 30% between 2019 and 2020, the greatest single-year increase in more than a century, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 2022.

Under the Nirbhaya scheme for women and children who are sexually abused, the Indian government had planned to open three fast-track DNA testing labs in Mumbai, Nagpur, and Pune in October 2021. Globally, an increasing number of crime and government measures are likely to fuel category growth.

The demand for identification technology is increasing steadily as the crime rate rises, increasing the demand for forensic kits and services, supporting sector growth throughout the projection period. The use of biometric identification has become a prominent trend in a variety of sectors and domains.

As a result, the worldwide human identification market is expected to generate income from a variety of sub-vectors. Furthermore, medical and biological sciences have provided credence to various sub-domains of human identity. Statistical genetics and forensic sciences have improved the quality gradient in human identification services.

DNA markers are thought to be the most reliable source for identifying and tracking people. In the field of forensic testing and analysis, the narrative around testing human samples for criminal investigations has acquired traction. This is a critical aspect in terms of the global human identification market growth and expansion.

The high cost of human identification instruments and services is projected to limit expansion. In addition, a lack of funds dedicated to future breakthroughs in the human identification industry is expected to stymie market growth.

Key Takeaways:

The United States is expected to account for a large portion of the global human identification market throughout the projected period. This is attributed to the government's financial support for forensic research. The United States is the dominant market for human identification, and the country's growing DNA database is another factor driving the market growth.
The human identification market in the Asia Pacific is predicted to hold the dominating share, particularly in Japan and South Korea, during the projected period. This is owing to the growing expertise of forensic technologies in this region. Many economies are actively investing in the human identification business. Furthermore, the increase in criminal activity in countries such as Japan and South Korea has caused governments to take efforts to improve their technology, which is adding to market development.
Owing to its enormous potential opportunities, since human identification techniques are often used in missing person investigations, the rapid DNA analysis technology type is expected to hold significant revenue through the forecast period.
As the number of laboratories is growing and the rising availability of government financing, the forensic laboratories end-user type accounts for a significant share and is the most innovative area for key players.
