Cell Culture Market Growth & Trends
The global cell culture market size is expected to reach USD 60.27 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 11.9% from 2022 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This can be attributed to the increase in biopharmaceutical production, advancements in vaccine research and development, and increasing focus on genetic engineering applications that rely heavily on cell culture techniques.
Innovations in cell culture workflow automation, such as the commercial development of integrated robotic liquid handling systems, are expected to significantly boost the capabilities of current cell culture technologies. For instance, culturing processes are expected to witness improvements in capacity handling and efficiency, and reproducibility in operations. Similarly, automation in cell line development technologies is gaining traction with the launch of new platforms. For instance, in October 2021, CYTENA launched C.STATION, a fully automated cell line development platform, for enhancing antibody and gene therapy production. Such product launches are likely to increase the market penetration of cell culture offerings.
Cell culture models play a pivotal role in the development of novel therapeutics for diseases such as diabetes, cancer, and Parkinson’s diseases. With the increasing emphasis on research and development activities exploring therapeutic candidates for such diseases, the demand for customized media for use in preclinical research is expected to drive the market. Furthermore, demand for serum-free media is likely to witness significant growth due to increasing quality constraints in biopharmaceuticals and the requirement for highly consistent and standardized culturing conditions.
The COVID-19 pandemic has boosted the demand for cell culture products due to the significant role played by culturing technologies in the discovery of novel diagnostic and therapeutic options for the disease. For instance, research applications such as high-throughput COVID-19 drug screening for the identification of potential drug candidates or investigations aimed at understanding the mechanism of viral entry into the host cells are expected to positively affect the market growth. Furthermore, culturing techniques offer essential tools for the production of viral particles for vaccine development, thereby broadening the growth prospects in this domain.
