The global immunohistochemistry market is estimated to be valued at USD 2.88 BN in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period (2024-2031). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a technique used to detect antigens in cells of a tissue section by exploiting the principle of antibodies binding specifically to antigens in biological tissues. IHC enables researchers to identify cell types and locations of biomarkers as well as the distribution of target antigens in normal and diseased tissues. It helps in disease diagnosis, prognostic evaluation, and predictive and personalized medicine. IHC uses affinity between antibodies and antigens for making specific proteins in cells of a tissue sample visible microscopically, thus aiding in the identification of cell type and localization of biomolecules. The cells, antigens, and antibodies used must be carefully controlled to ensure accurate and reproducible results.

Market Dynamics:

The global immunohistochemistry market is primarily driven by the rising geriatric population and associated increase in prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) October 2022 report, the proportion of the world's population over 60 years will nearly double from 12% to 22% between 2015 and 2050. The growing incidence of cancer worldwide is also boosting the demand for IHC assays to detect biomarkers related to cancer diagnosis and prognosis. However, stringent regulatory frameworks for the approval of IHC diagnostic kits and lack of skilled personnel especially in developing nations are some challenges restraining the market growth. The emergence of digital pathology solutions offering automated quantification of IHC staining and integration of Artificial Intelligence for more accurate analysis present lucrative opportunities for market players.
