The food pathogen safety testing equipment and supplies market will see consistent yet gradual growth because the growth is influenced mostly by the growing awareness of foodborne diseases and the acute nature of the need to keep the safety level in the food supply chain high. The increased consumer demand for safe, minimally processed, and quality food products that are of high standard is opening up lucrative opportunities in advanced pathogen detection systems, such as the PCR-based system, rapid test kits, immunosystems, and laboratory consumables. Due to the growing regulatory demands and the focus of food producers on the protection of the brand and the health of the population, the interest in testing technologies that are safe and reliable is increasing. The large cost of such instrumentation and continuing consumable supplies, as well as the requirement of skilled laboratory staff, may, however, pose a problem to smaller-scaled manufacturers and testing centers and limit their penetration in the broader market despite the overall favorable growth outlook.
In-house laboratories (factory labs) segment to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period.
The market for in-house laboratories (factory labs) for food pathogen safety testing equipment and supplies is projected to grow at a notable rate. Companies in the food industry are also setting up in-company testing to check raw materials, processing conditions, and finished goods in real time and therefore do not rely on Third-party laboratories, as well as minimizing turnaround time. Labs created in-house allow faster identification of the presence of various types of pathogens, and allow companies to avoid recalling any products and regulatory fines, and to save the reputation of their brands. The increasing manufacturing of ready-to-eat, meat, dairy, and packaged food items has further intensified the need to have on-site testing capabilities backed by PCR systems, quick detection packages, enrichment medium, and automated sample preparation systems. With the rise of stricter food safety regulations and companies focusing on paying proactive attention to risk management, the investment in factory-based laboratories will continue to be high, which will further support the significant role that this segment will play in the overall market development.

Consumables & supplies to hold significant market share during forecast period.
The consumables and supplies segment in the food pathogen safety testing equipment and supplies market has a projected high future rate of growth in the forecast period, which is attributed to its repetitive nature and overall necessity in daily testing operations. PCR reagent kits, pathogen-specific test kits, enrichment media, culture plates, and sample preparation consumables are some of the products necessary in the detection of Salmonella, Listeria, and E. coli in meat, seafood, dairy, and ready-to-eat food applications. Laboratories and food manufacturers are passionate consumers of these consumables since they provide standardized procedures, uniform accuracy, usability, and interactivity with automated systems. Furthermore, the growing amount of food safety tests due to the tightening of regulatory requirements, export conditions, and growing popularity of personal health concerns are speeding up the re-purchase of testing materials and tests. With the growth of food production and scaled production worldwide, and the focus on rapid check-up tests, the consumables and kits category is set to advertise healthy commercial value and long-term growth in the general market.
Asia Pacific to exhibit highest CAGR during forecast period.
The market of Asia Pacific food pathogen safety testing equipment and supplies has been anticipated to grow the most in the forecast period due to the growing urbanization, growing food processing businesses, and growing food safety awareness in such major economies as China, India, Japan, and Australia. The increasing population of the region and the consumption of packaged, processed, ready-to-eat food are largely impacting the demand for reliable pathogen detection solutions. The enhanced regulatory measures, export food standards, and the government-initiated food safety measures are also promoting the deployment of improved testing methods such as Thomas PCR-based products, rapid detection food testing, and supermarket lab reagents. With manufacturers of food-producing products having high attention on quality control and avoiding contamination, the utilization of modern and high-throughput testing solutions is on the rise, making Asia Pacific a prime growth driver in the global market.

Ein Berliner Gericht hat die Weitergabe personenbezogener Daten von in Deutschland ansässigen WhatsApp-Nutzern an Facebook für rechtswidrig erklärt und dem Messengerdienst eine entsprechende Übermittlung untersagt. Nach dem Urteil des Landgerichts Berlin II darf WhatsApp darüber hinaus auch jene Kontaktdaten, die im Account der Nutzer gespeichert sind und Personen betreffen, die den Dienst selbst nicht verwenden, nicht an Facebook weitergeben. Geklagt hatte der Verbraucherzentrale Bundesverband (vzbv), der sich gegen Änderungen der Nutzungsbedingungen und der Datenschutzrichtlinie aus dem Jahr 2016 wandte.
Der vzbv hatte in dem Verfahren zusätzlich verlangt, bereits übermittelte Daten löschen zu lassen. Diesen weitergehenden Forderungen folgte die Zivilkammer nicht. Sie verwies darauf, dass WhatsApp erklärt habe, „nie Daten an Facebook als Verantwortlichen weitergegeben zu haben“. Konkrete Anhaltspunkte, die diese Darstellung widerlegen könnten, legten die Verbraucherschützer nach Gerichtsangaben nicht vor. Nutzer waren im August 2016 per Hinweis auf der Website und via Push-Nachricht über die Änderung der Bedingungen informiert und um Zustimmung gebeten worden.
Eine zentrale Rolle spielte in dem Verfahren eine bereits 2016 erlassene Anordnung des Hamburgischen Beauftragten für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit. Diese untersagte Facebook am 23. September 2016, personenbezogene Daten deutscher WhatsApp-Nutzer zu erheben und zu speichern. Im Prozess führte der Rechtsvertreter von WhatsApp aus, man habe daraufhin darauf verzichtet, entsprechende Daten in der Europäischen Union mit Facebook zu teilen. Das Berliner Gericht stützte sich in seiner Entscheidung auf diese Darlegung und die fehlenden gegenteiligen Belege der Klägerseite.
Trotz der teilweisen Zurückweisung der Klage bewertet der vzbv das Urteil als Erfolg. Verbandsvorständin Ramona Pop begrüßte insbesondere die Klarstellung des Gerichts, dass eine Einwilligung zur Verknüpfung persönlicher Daten nicht „erschlichen“ werden dürfe. Aus Sicht des Verbands versuchten Meta und andere Plattformen weiterhin, ihre Marktmacht auszubauen und Zustimmungen zur Datenverknüpfung mit aus Verbraucherschutzsicht fragwürdigen Methoden zu erlangen. Der Messengerdienst WhatsApp gehört seit 2014 zum Meta-Konzern, der die Integration seiner Dienste und Datenbestände in den vergangenen Jahren schrittweise vorangetrieben hat.
