Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) refers to mutations found at a specific locus or single base pair mutation containing two alleles. SNPs aid in understanding the correlations between the genotype and behavior indicated by all living organisms.  It involves the measurement of variations that commonly occur in individuals. Unlike conventional time-consuming, expensive, and labor- extensive detection technologies, SNP technology is highly efficient, relatively inexpensive, and automated. The market size can be evaluated by collating the revenue generated from various segments and by studying the usage of the products across various end-user industries, along with the costs associated with them.
