Microcarrier Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028


The global microcarrier market size reached US$ 1.6 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 2.2 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.45% during 2022-2028.

Microcarriers are beads manufactured using different materials like gelatin, dextran, cellulose, plastic, and glass. They provide anchorage or an attachment surface for the suspended cell culture, which aids in increasing the viability of cells. They also enhance the production capacity, improve culture robustness, facilitate process scale-up, and reduce cell manufacturing costs. As a result, they are widely utilized in cell-line production and with bioreactors. Moreover, as they are easy to handle and have a high surface-to-volume ratio, they are gaining traction worldwide as an alternative to monolayer procedures for nerve and muscle cultures.

Microcarrier Market Trends:
Microcarriers are extensively used during the production of vaccines to increase protein-producing and virus-generating adherent cell populations. This, along with the urgent need for mass vaccination to control the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), represents one of the key factors impelling the market growth. In addition, the rising prevalence of viral diseases is catalyzing the demand for microcarrier-based vaccine delivery systems. These systems modulate the immune responses and other immunostimulatory compounds, thereby increasing the availability of antigens to the immune cells. Apart from this, dissolvable microcarriers composed of cross-linked polysaccharide polymers are widely being used in large-scale cell production and in cell therapy applications. This, in confluence with the rising geriatric population and the risk of developing cancer with age, is catalyzing the demand for cell therapeutics and microcarriers. Furthermore, researchers are focusing on introducing microcarriers using a genetic algorithm and a transient liquid molding optofluidic approach. They are also developing three-dimensional (3D) shaped hydrogel cell microcarriers that allow adherent culture and self-alignment for imaging flow cytometry. This is projected to contribute to the market growth.
