Preimplantation genetic testing is a process in which embryos developed outside the womb are tested for particular genetic characteristics, usually genetic abnormalities that cause serious disease, before being transferred to a woman’s uterus. Preimplantation genetic testing owes its existence to advances in the world of reproductive medicine and genetics that occurred in the late 20th century. Though initially developed as a means to detect serious genetic conditions, preimplantation genetic testing can be used for other purposes. In fact, virtually any of the hundreds of genetic tests now commercially available, and the many more in development, could be used to test embryos. However, socio-ethical concerns regarding preimplantation genetic testing is a major challenge surrounding the market.

The global preimplantation genetic testing market is categorized based on test type and technology. Based on technology, the market is segmented into next-generation sequencing, polymerase chain reaction, fluorescence in situ hybridization, comparative genomic hybridization and single-nucleotide polymorphism. Next-generation sequencing held the largest market share in 2018. The benefits of NGS include:

• It allows simultaneous analysis of 24 chromosomes with higher resolution
• It offers the possibility to analyze chromosomal aneuploidy and monogenic diseases (caused by mutations in a single gene) separately or simultaneously in a single assay
• Reduced analysis time, avoiding the need to freeze the embryos while awaiting results
• It allows the simultaneous analysis of several embryos on a single test which directly affects the cost of analysis.

In 2018, North America was the largest market for preimplantation genetic testing owing to rising number of IVF procedures and substantial adoption of genomic techniques. Moreover, Asia Pacific is projected to grow at a highest pace during the forecast period. Key players of the preimplantation genetic testing market include Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Agilent Technologies, Inc., PerkinElmer, Inc., CooperSurgical, Inc., Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI), Abbott Laboratories, Natera, Inc., Genea Limited, Rubicon Genomics, Inc. and Oxford Gene Technology among others.
