Abstract
1.0 Study Rationale
- Assessment of Global Market positions of suppliers of Amplification
Products
- Estimation of use of different amplification methodologies
- Identification of top selling products
- ' Drill down' and analyse regions and major countries
- Identify Regional Players and Positions
2.0 ' Voice of Customer' Methodology
The data collection methodology was a telephone survey. The survey was carried
out utilising our worldwide database of Life Science personnel who are active
in academic research.
2.2 Statistical Validation
' VOC surveys' provide qualitative and quantitative information. However,
without assessment level of statistical confidence, data validity can be open
to challenge. Our survey aimed for 95% confidence level findings when compared
to researchers who have published this year citing amplification methodologies
across each Region/Country.
3.0 Global Summary
- Standard non-quantitative PCR and RT-PCR are the most common techniques
used in academic research
- 62 Worldwide suppliers for genomic DNA PCR were cited by researchers.
AppliedBiosystemsis the market-leading supplier. At the product level,TaqDNA
Polymerase fromPromegaandAmpliTaqGold from AppliedBiosystemsare the global
market leaders.
- Two Step RT-PCR is the common RT-PCR methodology, for one step
methodologiesQiagen' sOneStepRT-PCT kit is the global market leader.
- 27 suppliers of Reverse Transcriptase products were cited. Invitrogenis
the global leader,SuperScriptII is the leading product worldwide
- 49 suppliers ofcDNAamplification products were cited. Invitrogenis the
global leader,TaqDNA Polymerase from Invitrogen is the leading product
worldwide
