The microbiome sequencing service market enables
characterization of microbial communities present in human body and other
environmental samples using next generation sequencing technologies. Microbiome
sequencing allows researchers to understand the role of microorganisms in human
health and disease. Advantages of microbiome sequencing include providing
deeper understanding of microbial diversity, species level profiling and
taxonomic classification. The growing need to study gut-brain axis and role of
microbiome in various diseases such as cancer, diabetes, obesity has created
demand for microbiome sequencing services.
The Global microbiome sequencing service market is estimated
to be valued at US$ 4.13 Bn in 2024
and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of
11.% over the forecast period 2024 to 2031.

Market Drivers and Restrain:
The key driver for microbiome sequencing service market is rising investments
in metagenomics research. Metagenomics studies the collective genetic material
recovered directly from environmental samples and studies complex microbial
communities. With advancement in sequencing technologies, metagenomics provides
a culture-independent approach to study whole microbial communities. This has
led to surge in grant funding for metagenomics projects from both private and
government sources globally. However, requirement of expensive instruments,
dedicated bioinformatics support and high capital investment for building
integrated sequencing pipelines are some key challenges restraining market
growth. Data management and analyzing large sequencing data generated through
metagenomics projects is a complex task requiring specialized bioinformatics
expertise, which is currently limited. This poses challenge for widespread
adoption of microbiome sequencing in clinical research and healthcare
applications.
Segment
Analysis
The Microbiome Sequencing Service Market is segmented by
technology into 16S rRNA sequencing, metagenomics sequencing, and others. 16S
rRNA sequencing is dominating the market currently as it is more cost-effective
and easy to analyse and interpret the results compared to metagenomics
sequencing. Metagenomics sequencing identifies all genetic material in a
microbial community, which provides comprehensive insights but is more
expensive and complex analysis.
Global Analysis
Regionally, North America holds the largest share in the
Microbiome Sequencing Service Market due to growing applications of microbiome
therapeutics for chronic disease management. The presence of major players and
developed healthcare infrastructure are some key factors supporting market
growth. Europe is the second largest region, while Asia Pacific is emerging as
the fastest growing regional market owing to increasing R&D investments in
microbiome research from pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and rising
awareness of microbiome-based therapies.
