AFP Testing Market Set to Witness an Uptick during 2016-2024

Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) screening tests are extensively employed globally as they aid in determining particular types of chromosomal aberrations such as Edward’s syndrome and Down’s syndrome, some types of cancer, and neural tube defects. AFP screening tests are commercially available owing to their sensitivity in the diagnosis of cancer. AFP is the most commonly found plasma protein in the fetus of human beings. This protein is primarily made up of immature liver cells within the fetus, hence infants have elevated levels of AFP, which later on falls to normal adult level at the end of the first year.

AFP screening tests are largely employed and numerous amongst them are available commercially owing to their sensitivity for cancer diagnosis. The normal level of AFP in the blood of human beings is lower than 10 ng/ml but it may become as high as 500ng/ml in people suffering from chronic hepatitis. AFP levels also elevate in patients suffering from renal cancer, brain tumors, Hodgkin’s disease, and lymphoma.

The segment of cancer diagnostic is rising owing to the fact that researchers are on the lookout for discovering specific antigens and new techniques for further improvement of the mode of treatment. Thus, the increasing cases of cancer globally will provide impetus to the growth of the market for AFP testing. Some common cancers include testes cancer, liver cancer, ovarian cancer, stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, and biliary tract cancer, and others including hepatitis and cirrhosis. In addition, the global AFP testing market is also poised to rise due to the increasing aging population because of the fact that aged people are more prone to tumor development and diseases.
