The global long-read sequencing market is anticipated to observe impressive growth during the forecast period 2023-2027. The major factors include growing occurrences of genetic disorders, growing government support for R&D activities, and extensive development in technology are fueling the growth of the market. Long-read sequencing, also known as third-generation sequencing, is a DNA sequencing technique that is being researched. It can determine the nucleotide sequence of long sequences of DNA ranging between 10,000 and 100,000 base pairs at a time. This technology eliminates the need to cut up and then amplify DNA which is usually needed in other DNA sequencing methods. The other factors supporting the market’s growth are, a rise in R&D activities, a growing number of patients with genetic diseases, including cancer, an increasing number of clinical trials, the rising popularity of personalized medicine, increasing acceptance of modern approaches for medical diagnostics, rising utilization of sequence analysis methodologies in medical institutes for academic purposes, rise in world population, growing adoption of inorganic growth strategies, and immense potential for emerging submarkets.

The surge in Incidences of Genetic Disorders
The increasing prevalence of genetic diseases, such as color blindness, Down’s syndrome, cystic fibrosis, and others, across the globe is bolstering the growth of the market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 10,000 of the diseases are known to be monogenic, triggered by a single error in a single gene in the human DNA. With the help of long-read sequencing methods, the whole genomics of the patient can be examined. Thus, rising the adoption of long-read sequencing in the treatment of genetic conditions. The growing number of patients suffering from genetic diseases is also a contributing factor to the growth of the market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), sickle cell anemia, a severe genetic condition, affects about 72,000 newborn babies.

Increasing Government Support for R&D Activities
The increasing research which uses long-read sequencing methods is being heavily funded by government authorities, which is a key reason for the growth of the market. Moreover, the rising number of research activities is augmenting the growth of the market. For instance, in the U.S., genomics research and development projects are funded through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as well as numerous other groups from around the globe. Presently, numerous amounts of research activities are being performed, which is projected to give manufacturers an advantage as they develop new and advanced long-read sequencing, as well as to open many opportunities in the long-read sequencing market. For instance, in the U.S., genomics research and development projects are funded through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as well as numerous other groups from around the globe.

Technological advancements
The rise in technological advancements in sequencers is propelling the growth of the market. These advancements have made sequencing more efficient, accurate, and portable. For instance, long reads generated by SMRT sequencers span around possible repetitive regions and give a comprehensive view of the whole genome. Similarly, in 2018, Pacific Biosciences of California (PacBio) announced the enhancements to their Sequel System, which comprises a new version of its software, new consumables including reagents, and a new SMRT Cell (1M v3).
