DNA Sequencing Market Trends (Kalorama Survey of Lab Using Next-Gen and Capillary Systems)

DNA Sequencing Market Trends

Report Summary


This report and survey, conducted by Justin Saeks, Kalorama Information’s senior biotech analyst and author of our DNA Sequencing Markets report, attempts to answer these questions and more, taking a quantitative view of the sequencing marketplace. The survey encompasses next-gen and capillary systems, with an emphasis on trends in second- and third-generation systems. Academic, research, government and other labs were interviewed for this study.

The DNA sequencer market has undergone rapid changes in the last few years, unlike during any period in its history and unlike most technologies except the computer or the chip. The rapid ongoing technological advances have enabled a Moore’s Law type of phenomenon in relation to the cost of sequencing and the output of the systems.

Kalorama Information’s DNA Sequencing Market Trends (Kalorama Survey of Labs Using Next-Gen and Capillary Systems) aims to identify some of the key changes taking place with both next-generation systems and capillary sequencers in relation to their usage in labs.

This market study includes:

• Status of Next-Gen and Third-Gen Systems
• Future Purchasing Plans and Time Frame
• Run Frequencies
• Sequencing Applications
• Features Liked and Disliked by Brand (454, ABI SOLID, Illumina)
• U.S. vs. Europe and Rest of World Stats
• Over 105 Exhibits to Illuminate Survey
• Main Challenges/Bottlenecks to Usage
• Difficulty of Data Analysis by Brand/Type
• Difficulty of Data Management by Brand/Type
• Sequencing Models Respondents Are Likely to Consider
• Verbatim Comments of Respondents
• Analyst Conclusions

Based on an Analyst-Conducted Survey of 120 Labs

The study focuses on a survey of 120 laboratories which was carried out from July to September of 2010, with the majority in the latter portion. Specific lab names are not mentioned in the report. About 70% of the labs were academic, the remainder were hospital, government or independent labs. 70% of hospitals are in North America, 12% in Europe and 18% in ROW. The bulk of respondents were core labs with more than a third doing contract work.

The survey was conducted by the author of DNA Sequencing and Equipment Markets, published in several editions. The survey effort targeted any lab that uses a sequencer for any application, but with the goal of achieving as close a representative breadth of labs as possible. Due to the increasing importance of second- and third-generation systems in the market, the scope leans towards these types of sequencers. However, the market inevitably includes labs that use both. The mix of labs reached in the surveys provides both diverse industry segments as well as groups of labs with both types of systems, only capillary systems, or only next-generation systems.

Labs were mostly contacted by phone and asked to participate in a phone interview/survey for around 10 to 15 minutes. A small fraction of the labs completed the survey on a website set up with the questions. The survey included both open-ended and multiple-choice type questions. In most cases, 59% of labs, the lab manager was the party interviewed. Research scientists or associates were spoken to in 39% of cases. The remaining 19% of respondents were technicians, executives, professors or others.
