The global recombinant cell culture market is increasing at a rapid pace. The growing need for animal-free supplements in cell culture applications is aiding the growth of the recombinant cell culture supplements market. Recombinant cell culture supplements play a crucial role in enhancing cell viability, maintaining a healthy culture, and customizing the cell culture in accordance with the needs of the individual.
The global recombinant cell culture supplements market was estimated at $308.6 million in 2021 and is expected to reach $1,188.6 million by 2032, growing at a CAGR value of 12.24% during the forecast period 2022-2032. The growth in the global recombinant cell culture supplements market is expected to be driven by the rising demand for cell culture supplements, increasing investment in life sciences research and development, as well as growing advantages of recombinant supplements over traditional animal-derived supplements.
Impact
Many biopharmaceutical products are being developed by utilizing the cell culture technique. The study of cell physiology and biochemistry is made possible through laboratory cell culture, which also opens up research avenues that are challenging to pursue in vivo. Controlling variables such as the culture media, culture conditions, population density, and growth rate makes it simple to assess the effects of medications or other substances on cultured cells. Additionally, it allows analyzing the function of various genes and offers enormous potential in the field of genetics. It enables the assessment of harmful and carcinogenic chemicals on cells in the fields of oncology and virology and the comprehension of how different medications, viruses, and physical or chemical carcinogens interact. Furthermore, the recombinant cell culture has various applications, such as research on vaccines, stem cells, gene therapy, and genetic engineering, as well as the creation of protein therapies manufacturing of genetically edited proteins such as monoclonal antibodies, insulin, and hormones.
Impact of COVID-19
Due to the pandemic, governments across the globe enforced lockdowns which significantly hampered the research and clinical development of several biopharmaceutical products. Additionally, research grants were shifted toward combating SARS-CoV-2. Further, the biopharmaceutical companies, research, and academic organizations focused on the development of a novel COVID-19 vaccine. Overall, there was some disruption in the recombinant cell culture supplement supply chain and operations in 2020. However, as transportation and marketing were made more accessible, the pandemic's effects on the recombinant cell culture supplements market were minimal to non-existent. Due to the shift in emphasis toward COVID-19 testing, diagnostics, and the supply chain of serum-free or recombinant supplements for the creation of a novel vaccine for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the companies were able to maintain their financial position.
