Report Outlook
The global C-reactive protein testing market was valued at USD 1,834.23 million in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.7% during the forecast period.
The C-reactive protein (CRP) test calculates the level of CRP in the blood, indicating inflammation and can be associated with various infections and medical conditions. This test is particularly useful in assessing the risk of developing cardiovascular disorders, including coronary artery disease, which can prime to a major heart attack. The market demand for CRP testing is expected to increase due to the rising prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and the adoption of point-of-care devices.
Elevated levels of CRP in the plasma can indicate inflammation, which may be caused by a wide range of diseases, including inflammatory and malignant conditions. High readings of CRP testing can also indicate inflammation in the heart or blood vessels, thereby increasing the risk of heart disease.

Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has positively impacted the growth of the CRP testing market. Due to increased demand for the test, the adoption of CRP testing has proven beneficial in the early detection and assessment of disease severity during COVID-19. This trend is expected to continue and drive market growth in the foreseeable future.
Plasmonic nanoparticles (PNPs) possess versatile optical properties, making them valuable tools for biosensing applications. A research study conducted by BabeTM-Bolyai University in Romania and published in July 2021 provided an overview of assays based on plasmonic nanoparticles for detecting C-reactive protein (CRP). The study also demonstrated using recently developed point-of-care assays for fast CRP testing. These advancements are expected to contribute to the accelerated growth of the C-reactive protein testing market.
C-reactive protein is considered a marker for evaluating the severity of infections and monitoring therapeutic progress, per the guidance provided by the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC). In addition, Chinese guidelines recommend using CRP tests, along with additional clinical parameters, for evaluating and following up on SARS-CoV-2 disorder. Organizations like Aidian and Abbott offer products that serve as supportive diagnostic tools in managing COVID-19 infections.
For example, Aidian provides user-friendly QuikRead go CRP tests and a portable QuikRead go instrument for quantitatively measuring CRP. Also, Abbott provides the Afinion CRP and Afinion 2 Analyzer test, which provides results in just 3 minutes. The increased demand for CRP testing in research and clinical settings, driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, is expected to impact market growth positively.
Industry Dynamics
- Growth Drivers
- Rising Prevalence of Cardiovascular Diseases
The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is projected to drive the industry's demand for c-reactive protein (CRP) testing. Detection of high levels of CRP is often associated with cardiovascular diseases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2019, around 17.9 million individuals expired from cardiovascular disorders, accounting for 32% of global deaths. Most (85%) of these fatalities were attributed to heart attacks or strokes.
Moreover, there is a growing focus on implementing point-of-care screening and innovative techniques for CRP testing, supported by government initiatives. These initiatives aim to enhance accessibility and convenience in diagnosing and monitoring cardiovascular diseases. The development of advanced techniques in CRP testing is expected further to drive the growth of the CRP testing market.
C-reactive protein (CRP) tests diagnose inflammatory disorders like endometriosis, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, lupus, and cardiovascular disease. Elevated CRP, along with risk factors like high blood pressure, hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes, indicates significant heart disease risk. Early identification reduces heart attack and stroke risks. CRP aids in discovering medicines for inflammatory diseases in vitro and in vivo, contributing to market growth.

By Assay Type Analysis
- The immunoturbidimetric assays segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2023
The immunoturbidimetric assays segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2023. The application of this technique in chronic diseases of the respiratory and cardiac systems will contribute to its dominance. Advancements in the Chemiluminescence Immunoassay (CLIA) process, providing accurate results, will further drive growth in this segment.
Technological advancements in immunoturbidimetric assays will fuel market growth. Researchers worldwide are developing advanced and innovative assays to support rapid and precise CRP testing. For example, an examination publicized in January 2021 by investigators from D.M. Vasudevan Agappe Diagnostic Limited, India, established using a latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay for highly sensitive and wide-range CRP detection in human serum.
By Detection Range Analysis
- The hs (high sensitivity) CRP segment expected to witness the fastest market share during the forecast period.
The high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) testing segment expected to witness the fastest market share during the forecast period, driven by advancements in CRP technologies. Compared to traditional CRP tests, hs-CRP testing is highly sensitive and can detect even small increases in CRP levels in the human body. It makes it valuable in identifying the risk for coronary artery disease, contributing to the demand for this segment.
Moreover, the market is witnessing the development of various hs-CRP-based point-of-care (POC) testing devices by different market entities, further boosting the market growth. Technical improvements in conventional CRP methods are also expected to drive the development of the hs-CRP testing segment. Introducing nano-bio hybrid materials in CRP biosensors has appeared as an advantageous procedure for rapid and accurate CRP measurement using portable biosensors. In a study published in May 2021, researchers from Korea outlined the advances in spectroscopy-based, electrical CRP biosensors and electrochemical, comprised of nanomaterial hybrids and biomaterial. Such analyses are expected to boost the adoption of advanced CRP tools by end users, fostering the growth of the hs-CRP testing market.
North America accounted for the largest market share in 2023
In 2023, North America accounted for the largest market share, primarily driven by the high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in countries like the U.S. and Canada. For instance, in 2019, the U.S. witnessed over 356,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) annually, with a significant fatality rate of over 90%. It, coupled with advanced healthcare facilities and government initiatives, is expected to propel the growth of the c-reactive protein testing market in the region.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to exhibit fastest growth during the forecast period, fueled by a continuously increasing population and a rising senior population in countries like Japan and China.
