<strong>Beta</strong>-2 microglobulin is a protein of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules, which is<br />

used as tumor marker for certain blood cancers. It is present on all nucleated cells. The beta-2<br />

microglobulin is tested in plasma, serum, or urine samples. The beta-2 microglobulin level in the<br />

sample helps detect disease activity; for example, low level of beta-2 microglobulin in serum<br />

indicates less disease activity, while high levels indicate higher disease activity. In many<br />

hematological disorders, beta-2 microglobulin level works as a highly sensitive marker. <strong>Beta</strong>-2<br />

microglobulin is used as a prognostic marker to test disease activity such as lymphoma, leukemia,<br />

and multiple myeloma. High levels of beta-2 microglobulin in urine samples can help detect tubular<br />

disorders of the kidney. However, this testing cannot be used to diagnose a specific disease. It only<br />

provides additional information regarding a patient’s prognosis.<br />

Driving factors of the global beta-2 microglobulin testing market include rising geriatric population<br />

and increasing prevalence of blood cancer. However, high cost, patent protection, regulatory<br />

constraints, technological edge, and limitations are anticipated to restrain the market. The global<br />

beta-2 microglobulin testing market can be segmented based on application, end-users, sample type,<br />

and region. In terms of application, the market can be divided into kidney diseases, tumor markers,<br />

urinalysis, ELISA, blotting, life science, testing or assay validation, antibody production,<br />

immunoassays, controls, and calibrators & standards. The tumor markers segment held a large<br />

market share in 2016 owing to the high prevalence of cancer. The kidney diseases and urinalysis<br />

segments are anticipated to witness strong growth in the next few years. Growth of these segments<br />

can be attributed to rise in the geriatric population.<br />

Based on end-user, the global beta-2 microglobulin testing market can be segmented into hospitals,<br />

academic, and research institutes, and diagnostic centers. The hospitals segment held the major<br />

market share in 2016 due to government initiatives for spreading awareness about the benefits of<br />

pre-determination of cancer. The academic and research institutes segment is expected to gain<br />

market share in the next few years owing to high demand for advancements in research &<br />

development.<br />

In terms of sample type, the global beta-2 microglobulin testing market can be classified into urine,<br />

blood, and cerebrospinal fluid. The blood sample segment accounted for high market share in 2016,<br />

attributed to rising prevalence of lymphoma, multiple myeloma, infections such as HIV,<br />

cytomegalovirus, and inflammatory disorders. The urine sample segment is anticipated to grow<br />

during the forecast period owing to rising population of people above 50 years and increasing<br />

prevalence of kidney disorders.<br />

Geographically, the global beta-2 microglobulin testing market can be divided into Asia Pacific,<br />

Europe, North America, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America held the largest<br />

share of the beta-2 microglobulin test market in 2016, owing to the technological advancements,<br />

which have created numerous opportunities for determining specific tumors, monitoring biological<br />

response to cancer therapy, and genetic predisposition. Increasing geriatric population further fueled<br />

the market in the region. Europe held the second largest market share in 2016 owing to the high<br />

prevalence of cancer. The market in Asia Pacific is expected to witness strong growth during the<br />

forecast period due to increasing awareness and government initiatives in India and China.<br />

Key players in the global beta-2 microglobulin testing market are Becton, Dickinson and Company,


Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Siemens Healthineers, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., Abbott<br />

Laboratories, Sequenom, QIAGEN, Cepheid, Biomedical diagnostics, bioMérieux, Inc., and other<br />

prominent players.<br />
