The worldwide oligonucleotide synthesis marketis growing due to favorable government policies, increasing prevalence of infectious diseases and cancer, advancements in synthesis technology, and ongoing research in synthetic biology. Valued at $1.5 billion in 2017, the domain is predicted to progress with a 10.8% CAGR during the forecast period 2018–2023, ultimately generating $2.8 billion in revenue by 2023. By definition, oligonucleotide synthesis is the artificial creation of oligonucleotides, which are short DNA or RNA fragments.
Over the years, the number of private and public organizations involved in synthetic biology research has grown significantly. Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars (Wilson Center), in a 2013 article, reported that the number of companies carrying out research in the field grew from 230 in 2009 to 503 by 2013. Such activities have paved the way for the development of small chemotherapeutic molecules and advanced biopharmaceuticals. Further, developments, including microchip-aided production, are leading to cost-effective and swift manufacturing of oligonucleotides.

In addition, several new products have come in the oligonucleotide synthesis market, such as protecting amino groups, synthesizers with high throughput, and coupling reagents. Similarly, the development of the microarray technology is aiding the production of oligonucleotides for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Along with making the nucleotide assembly method efficient and correcting errors in synthesized enzymes, such developments are also helping in the steady progress of the market.
Now,
the oligonucleotide R&D is itself being bolstered by growing government
support in the form of funding and other initiatives. The U.S. government
invested about $820 million in synthetic biology R&D between 2008 and 2014.
Similarly, as per SynbiCITE an England-based organization, the U.K government
invested over $400 million during 2009–2016 for establishing three training
centers and six research institutes dedicated to synthetic biology. Thus, with
favorable government attitude toward providing people with better levels of
healthcare, the oligonucleotide synthesis market is predicted to continue on
the path to prosperity.
Hence, it is clear that the
increase in research and development in the synthetic biology field will
further the market advance.
