Parts of the gene expression analysis market continue to develop in a somewhat predictable manner, whereas other segments are becoming increasingly complex and volatile. The main products—microarrays and RT-PCR—continue to gain widespread acceptance and to see revenues grow rapidly. However, different products and applications are increasingly being introduced, making the market more fragmented as well as unpredictable. In terms of application, too, the landscape is shifting. Although life-science research is still the dominant application, the clinical diagnostics and prognostics market is also becoming a reality.

This new study on the gene expression analysis market reviews the major technologies being employed, including:

• Alternative Splicing; Splice Variant Microarrays
• Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE)
• Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH)
• ChIP-on-chip
• DNA Microarrays
• Gene Trapping
• Methylation, Other Epigenetic Analysis
• MicroRNA
• Real-time PCR (RT-PCR)
• RNAse Protection Assays
• Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE)
• Tissue Arrays / Microarrays
• Transcript Analysis with Affinity Capture (TRAC)

In addition to comprehensive review of the products on the market from the major suppliers, each of the main applications of gene expression technologies is also reviewed, including:

• Biomarkers,
• Pharmacogenetics / Pharmacogenomics,
• Infectious Disease Research,
• Cancer Diagnostics and Prognostics, and
• Diagnosis and Prognosis of Other Diseases

The report provides a complete analysis of the market, including historical data on the market for RT-PCR and microarrays, instruments, and reagents. The report also forecasts revenues through 2012 in the segment and provides growth rates for each of the coming years, a complete regional breakdown of revenues, and revenue detail on the dominant player by region. A thorough competitive analysis includes revenue and market share of the top vendors. Detailed profiles of the following competitors are also included:
