The U.S. next-generation sequencing library preparation market size is expected to reach USD 1.96 billion by 2033, growing at a 13.09% CAGR from 2025 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is experiencing strong growth driven by the increasing adoption of Next-generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies in clinical diagnostics, oncology, and personalized medicine. As healthcare systems and laboratories shift toward more precise and data-driven approaches, the demand for accurate and efficient library preparation solutions is rising. NGS enables the detection of genetic mutations, structural variations, and epigenetic changes, making it a powerful tool for diagnosing rare diseases, identifying cancer biomarkers, and tailoring treatments to individual patients. This clinical application surge is significantly boosting the need for high-quality library prep kits that can handle diverse and sensitive sample types.
In addition, government initiatives and research funding in genomics are propelling growth within academic and institutional sectors. U.S.-based research organizations and universities are investing in large-scale genomics projects, including whole genome, exome, and transcriptome sequencing. These projects require advanced library preparation methods to ensure consistency, throughput, and data integrity. As a result, manufacturers are focusing on developing automated, scalable, and cost-effective library prep kits to support both large-volume and specialized research workflows, further strengthening market demand.
The growing use of NGS in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies for drug discovery, biomarker identification, and companion diagnostics is also a key market driver. These companies rely on sequencing data to accelerate clinical trials and enhance the precision of therapeutics. Library preparation is a critical component of this process, ensuring that sequencing libraries are uniform, reproducible, and compatible with high-throughput platforms. As precision medicine and targeted therapies continue to gain momentum, the need for robust, high-throughput library prep solutions will remain central to expanding the U.S. next-generation sequencing library preparation industry.
