Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:
The cell culture industry is expected to rise due to improvements in 3D culture technologies and their expanding use in biopharmaceutical manufacturing, drug discovery, and tissue engineering applications. The manufacture of innovative vaccines and biopharmaceuticals has been made possible by recent advancements in gene expression technology, expanding the research & development applications of cell culture techniques. Moreover, the market is anticipated to be driven by increased cancer research programs and an expanding range of gene therapy applications.
Due to the enormous contribution of cell culture technology to developing new diagnostic and treatment options for the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for items derived from cell culture has increased. Examples of research applications of cell lines that are anticipated to favor market expansion include high-throughput COVID-19 drug screening for discovering new drug candidates and studies aiming at understanding the mechanism of viral entry into host cells. The growth prospects in this field are also increased because culturing techniques provide crucial instruments for creating viral particles for vaccine development.
The Cell Culture market is segregated into consumables, products, and applications. Based on consumables, the market is segmented as Media, Minimum Essential Media (MEM), RPMI 1640 Media, MEM/F-12 Media, F-10 Serum-Free Media, BME Media, Insect Media, Other Media, Sera, Fetal Bovine Serum, Other AnimalSerum, Reagents, Albumin, and Other. The product segment includes Culture Systems, Incubators, Centrifuges, Cryostorage Equipment, Biosafety Equipment, and Pipetting Instruments. By application, the market is segmented into Biopharmaceuticals, Tissue Culture & Engineering, Vaccine Production, Drug Development, Gene Therapy, Toxicity Testing, Cancer Research, and Others.
Due to the substantial demand for media products for use in research and development applications, media accounted for the greatest revenue share. The market penetration for media products has expanded as a result of the availability of a variety of serum- and animal-component-free and customised media alternatives. Also, the commercialization of specialised media for stem cell applications is escalating, which is anticipated to accelerate the segment's expansion. For instance, businesses like Sartorius AG and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. provide media products designed for stem cell culture.
The segment with the highest revenue share was biopharmaceuticals. The use of cell culture techniques in the production of biopharmaceuticals is predicted to increase as a result of the use of mammalian cell lines, such as the Chinese hamster ovary, and the growing desire for alternative medicines. Furthermore, the recent development of a number of grafting methods and individualized treatment alternatives has increased the growth potential in the biopharmaceutical industry.
Due to major investments in R&D, the presence of an established scientific infrastructure, the high demand for media without animal components, and other considerations, North America held the biggest revenue share. In addition, it is anticipated that continued research and the growth of the biopharmaceutical sector in the U.S. will foster industry development in the area. Key firms like Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., and Becton, Dickinson, and Company can greatly influence the industry if they are present.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies
