Radioimmunoassay (RIA) is an in-vitro assay technique that is used to measure the concentration of antigens in blood. RIA encompasses the separation of protein from a mixture by using the specificity of antibodyantigen binding and their quantitation by using radioactivity. The method is hypersensitive and can quantify tiny amounts of hormone or drug level with the help of antibodies. Radioimmunoassay is used owing to its high sensitivity, which can analyze nanomolar and picomolar concentrations of hormones in biological fluids. RIA has become one of the major tools in various clinical laboratories for diagnostic procedures, such as assessing the plasma levels of most of the hormones, identifying the presence of certain abused drugs, evaluating the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen in donated blood, and others. This technique is also used for the early detection of cancer, treatment of peptic ulcers, research with neurotransmitters, detection of infections, and identification of allergens in food and house dust, and so on. The increasing usage of RIA in pharmaceutical industries, research labs, and contract research organizations (CROs) has led to an increased demand of products that are based on this technique. Furthermore, the rising need for quality and error-free results to ensure patient satisfaction has resulted in research labs and diagnostic centers to opt for high-throughput and automated procedures. This is also one of the major factors that have resulted in the growth of the RIA market to a large extent. There are two types of radioimmunoassay, which serve different functions for clinical diagnostics and research purposes. These types have been classified into reagents & kits and analyzers. In 2014, the reagents & kits segment contributed the largest share of 82.9% to the global radioimmunoassay market. The various application areas of RIA are infectious disease testing, endocrine testing, allergy testing, oncology testing, toxicology testing, and autoimmune disease testing. Out of all the application segments, oncology testing is the largest application segment, and is expected to hold the major market share in the near future. Based on this market’s end users, the global radioimmunoassay market has been segmented into hospitals (hospital-based laboratories/hospital-attached laboratories), academics, pharmaceutical industry and CROs, clinical laboratories, and others, which include physician offices, patient self-testing centers, blood banks, home health agencies, nursing homes, and ambulatory surgical centers.
