The molecular cytogenetics market is consolidated in nature due to the presence of a few large players. The prominent players in the market include F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. (Switzerland), Danaher Corporation (U.S.), Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. (U.S.), Abbott Laboratories (U.S.), Agilent Technologies (U.S.), PerkinElmer, Inc. (U.S.), Illumina, Inc. (U.S.), Bio-Rad Laboratories (U.S.), Oxford Gene Technology (U.K.), and Applied Spectral Imaging (U.S.).
F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. (Switzerland) was the largest player in the global molecular cytogenetics market, with a share of 15.2% in 2015. The company has a strong presence in the U.S. and in regions such as Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Japan. It focuses on acquisition as its key growth strategy. For instance, in January 2014, Roche acquired Genia Technologies, Inc. (U.S.). This acquisition strengthened Roche's next-generation sequencing pipeline. Moreover, in February 2015, Roche acquired Signature Diagnostics AG (Germany). This acquisition allowed Roche to further develop non-invasive treatment and monitoring devices for cancer patients.
Danaher Corporation (U.S.) was the second-largest player, with a market share of 13.7% in 2015. Leica Microsystems is a subsidiary of Danaher that develops molecular cytogenetics instruments and kits. The company has plants in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the U.K., China, and Singapore. It has presence in over 100 countries—with sales and service organizations in 20 countries and an international network of distribution partners. The company focuses on the introduction of innovative and technologically advanced products in the market.
