Poor hygiene during food preparation and processing can lead to contamination and serious diseases, such as diarrhea and cancer. As a result, governing agencies of various countries are implementing stringent food safety guidelines to ensure that food products undergo vigorous testing procedures before being sold in the market. Food safety testing focuses on detecting the presence of potential toxicants, such as harmful organisms, pathogens, preservatives, and chemicals, among different food products. It also assists in identifying adverse effects, maintaining food hygiene, and preventing and controlling foodborne illnesses.

Food Safety Testing Market Trends:
Rising instances of food adulteration and contamination are among the major risk factors for the spread of foodborne diseases that contribute significantly to healthcare costs. This represents one of the key factors catalyzing the need for food safety testing across the globe. It ensures in maintain the quality of food products, which avoids potential health hazards to consumers. Moreover, the growing consumption of packaged food products on account of rapid urbanization, busy lifestyles, and improving income levels is bolstering the market growth. The growing awareness among individuals about food hygiene and safety is also driving the market. Apart from this, automation, versatility, and the speed of analysis, along with stringent regulatory frameworks on food safety, are encouraging food processors to adopt immunoassays (IAs) in food testing. Furthermore, leading market players are introducing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) kits, standard and chromogenic media, and immune sera for the fast and qualitative detection of pathogens in real-time. They are also focusing on developing methods that help minimize the time and cost of food testing while ensuring accurate results. This is anticipated to positively influence the adoption of food safety testing worldwide.
