NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire -06/05/12)- TriMarkPublications.com cites in its newly published "DNA Sequencing and PCR Markets" report that the next-generation DNA sequencing platforms market will more than double, reaching $3.2 billion by 2017. For more information, visit: http://www.trimarkpublications.com/products/DNA-Sequencing-and-PCR-Markets.html.

DNA sequencing has a number of applications, including: full-genome resequencing, targeted discovery of mutations or polymorphisms, mapping of structural rearrangements, large-scale analysis of DNA methylation, RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq. The U.S. and Europe exhibit the highest market penetration for DNA sequencing, but other parts of the world are projected to see higher compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) of up to 13%. As DNA sequencing platforms become increasingly affordable, the cost of sequencing a human genome will soon fall below the $1,000 price point.
