Microcarrier Market is Expected to Reach $2.9 billion | MarketsandMarkets.

Chicago, April 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The microcarrier industry is expected to grow significantly in the near future. This is due to the increasing demand for automation and miniaturization in various industries. Microcarriers are used in a variety of applications ranging from cell culture to drug delivery. The growing demand for automated and miniaturized products is expected to drive the growth of the microcarrier industry. Additionally, the increasing demand for specialized products and services is also expected to contribute to the growth of the microcarrier industry.

Microcarrier market in terms of revenue was estimated to be worth $1.7 billion in 2021 and is poised to reach $2.9 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 10.7% from 2021 to 2026 according to a latest report published by MarketsandMarkets™. Rising demand for cell-based vaccines, government funding and venture capital investments for cell-based research and growing preference for single-use technologies are the key factors supporting the growth of the market. However, the growth of the market is likely to be restrained by factors such as the high cost of research and isseus in cell detachment from microcarriers.
