Protein Purification & Isolation Market Size

Protein Purification & Isolation Market size was valued at USD 8.3 Billion in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 22.4 Billion in 2032 with CAGR of 10.5%. The growth is majorly attributed to factors such as increasing research and development in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, rising demand for biologics, and technological advancements in protein purification and isolation techniques.
 

Protein purification refers to a process of isolating a specific protein or a group of proteins from a complex mixture of biological components. The protein purification & isolation facilitates in obtaining the target protein in a highly purified and biochemically active form. This process is essential for studying the structure, function, interactions, and potential applications of protein in research, diagnostics, and therapeutics.
 

COVID-19 Impact

The pandemic significantly disrupted the supply chain that resulted in delayed delivery of manufacturing the essential required for protein purification and isolation including protein purification and isolation kits, reagents, and other consumables. The shortage of such products impacted the growth of protein purification and isolation market. The lockdown and travel restrictions led to temporary closure or reduced the capacity in research laboratories and institutes, hindering the growth of the protein purification & isolation market.
 

Later as the COVID cases decreased the manufacturing of consumables were back to routine and the academic and research institutes were opened and resumed their ongoing research activities. The demand for protein purification and isolation procedures increased due to the increasing research and development by the pharmaceutical industries and increasing demand for biologics.
 

Protein Purification & Isolation Market Driving & Restraining Factors

The increasing research and development in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, rising demand for biologics, technological advancements in protein purification and isolation techniques, and rise in the prominence of contract research organizations (CROs) are the major factors driving the growth of this market. The biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies are focusing on research and development of biologics and other protein-based therapeutics which increases the demand for purified proteins. Protein isolation and purification is a crucial step in drug development to study the structure and function of the proteins. As a result, the demand for protein purification and isolation is expected to increase with the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and rising demand for novel treatment options.
 

The factors such as high cost of purification instruments and lack of skilled technicians are expected to restrain the growth of the global protein purification and isolation market. The high upfront cost of the most advanced purification instruments, including high-performance chromatography systems, centrifuges, and automated workstations, can be a barrier for research labs, particularly smaller academic institutions or startups with lower budgets. For protein purification and isolation techniques a deep understanding of both the theoretical principles and practical execution is required. Lack of skilled technicians can lead to lower yield, in adequate process, and increased risk of errors.
 

Protein Purification & Isolation Market Analysis

Based on technology, the protein purification & isolation market is divided into preparative chromatography, ultrafiltration, precipitation, electrophoresis, western blotting, dialysis & diafiltration, and centrifugation. Among the technologies, preparative chromatography segment dominated the global market with market share of 29.5% in 2022.
