Segment Insights

By Product & Service

The services segment dominated the global oligonucleotide synthesis market in 2023, holding a market share of 37.4%. This is mainly attributed to the growing outsourcing of oligonucleotide synthesis with specialized service companies, which is allowing biopharmaceutical companies and research entities to save time, decrease costs, and ensure quality. Customized synthesis, purification, and modification services available for targeted research and therapeutic applications further facilitate this trend.

On the other hand, the oligonucleotide product segment is anticipated to expand at the highest rate during the forecast period. This growth is driven by the growing need for synthetic DNA and RNA sequences for therapeutic, diagnostic, and academic purposes. The scalability and enhanced stability of these oligonucleotides render them suitable for application in vaccines, antisense therapies, and gene editing, thereby driving the segment's expected growth.

By Application

In applications, the PCR primers segment led the market in 2023 with the largest share of its unavoidable position in gene amplification and standard molecular biology protocols. Representing a huge figure of global consumption, PCR primers are of great importance in diagnostics, disease surveillance, and research, supporting their sustained dominance.

Meanwhile, the sequencing segment is expected to grow at the highest rate throughout the forecast period. As next-generation sequencing is becoming more readily available, the demand for high-quality oligonucleotides customized for library preparation and genomic analysis is also increasing. It is fueled by increasing precision medicine programs and population-scale genome sequencing initiatives.
