BCC Research Maps the 9.2% CAGR Surge in Global Research Antibodies - A Beacon for Innovators

Research antibodies used in scientific research help us understand how cells and molecules work in different areas of life sciences. The worldwide market for these research antibodies is predicted to increase by 9.2% each year from 2023 to 2028. This growth is fueled by a growing need for top-notch antibodies, more studies in the fields of proteomics and genomics, and increased investment in creating new vaccines and treatments.

BOSTON, March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- "According to the latest BCC Research study, the demand for Global Markets for Research Antibodies is estimated to increase from $3.7 billion in 2023 to reach $5.8 billion by 2028, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.2% from 2023 through 2028."

This comprehensive study delves into the market aspect of research antibodies, focusing on various segments. These include application-based segments like enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), western blotting (WB), immunohistochemistry (IHC) with tissue multiplexing, immunofluorescent staining (IF), immunoprecipitation, and flow cytometry (FC). Further segmentation covers antibody functions such as primary and secondary antibodies, clonality with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies (including recombinant antibodies), and customer types spanning universities, pharmaceutical and biotech companies, and other entities like governmental research labs and contract research organizations. Geographical segmentation includes North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World, with detailed analyses of major countries. The report also forecasts market trends by examining funding, patent publications, and sales trends among key industry players. The base year for market estimates is 2022, with projections extending to 2028.

The dominant choice in major reactivities leans towards anti-human antibodies, establishing them as the preferred option compared to counterparts targeting other species. While polyclonal antibody production remains a conventional and extensively marketed method, the landscape is witnessing a notable shift in end-user preferences. Secondary antibody products are gaining significant traction, particularly in treatment procedures, showcasing a marked inclination towards these products in the research and medical communities. Interestingly, China has emerged as a key player in the sector, contributing significantly to advancements in antibody-related research and production. However, recent financial reports suggest a potential downturn in the country's economy across various sectors in the aftermath of a profound crisis. This economic forecast raises questions about the future trajectory of China's role in the research antibody domain, with potential implications for global markets and collaborations in this critical scientific field.

Report Synopsis 

Global Markets for Research Antibodies Segmentation:

Host species Segmentation

This refers to the animal from which the antibody is derived. Different host species have different advantages and disadvantages in terms of antibody production, specificity, and cross-reactivity. Some of the common host species used for research antibodies are rabbit, goat, mouse, sheep, donkey, and others (such as chicken, camel, and llama).

Clonality Segmentation

This refers to the origin and diversity of the antibody. Polyclonal antibodies are produced by multiple clones of B cells and recognize multiple epitopes on the same antigen. Monoclonal antibodies are produced by a single clone of B cells and recognize a single epitope on the antigen. Recombinant antibodies are engineered by using genetic techniques and can have customized properties and functions.

Product Segmentation

This refers to the type and function of the antibody. Primary antibodies are the ones that directly bind to the target antigen. Secondary antibodies are the ones    that bind to the primary antibodies and are usually conjugated with a detection molecule, such as an enzyme or a fluorophore.

Major reactive Segmentation

This refers to the species or organism that the antibody reacts with. For example, human (anti-human) antibodies are the ones that recognize antigens from human cells or tissues. Mouse (anti-mouse) antibodies are the ones that recognize antigens from mouse cells or tissues. Rat (anti-rat) antibodies are the ones that recognize antigens from rat cells or tissues. Others include antibodies that react with antigens from other species or organisms, such as bacteria, viruses, plants, etc.

Application Segmentation

This refers to the method or technique that the antibody is used for. Some of the common applications of research antibodies are immunohistochemistry (IHC), which is the staining of tissue sections with antibodies; multiplexed staining, which is the simultaneous detection of multiple antigens with different antibodies; low-flexed staining, which is the staining of cells or tissues with minimal background and nonspecific binding; ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), which is the quantification of antigens or antibodies in a liquid sample; western blotting, which is the separation and identification of proteins by antibodies; flow cytometry, which is the analysis of cell populations by antibodies; immunocytochemistry (ICC), which is the staining of cultured cells with antibodies; immunofluorescent staining (IF), which is the visualization of antigens or antibodies with fluorescent molecules; immunoprecipitation (IP), which is the isolation and purification of antigens or antibodies by using beads or columns.

End-user Segmentation

This refers to the type of organization or institution that uses the research antibodies. Some of the common end-users of research antibodies are universities/academic institutions, which are involved in basic and applied research; pharma/biotech companies, which are involved in drug discovery and development; and others, such as governmental research labs, contract research organizations (CROs), diagnostic labs, etc.
