Global X-Ray Irradiators Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

X-ray irradiator is a high-tech device that can safely irradiate biological samples in vitro and in vivo in a laboratory environment to meet the needs of medical and biological research applications. X-ray irradiator is mainly used for the irradiation research of culturing cells, microorganisms, mice and rats and other biological materials. It has the technical advantages of good dose uniformity, low environmental dose, controllable dose, and good repeatability. It can be used for Animal model establishment (tumor, etc.), anti-tumor, anti-radiation, anti-chemotherapy, anti-rejection, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, antibody and other drug research, DNA damage, Cellcycle, cell culture, stem cell (marrow transplant), tumor, signal transduction Guidance, cellular immunosuppressive therapy, transplantation biology, gene therapy, hematology, radiobiology research, etc.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global X-Ray Irradiators market finds that the global X-Ray Irradiators market reached a value of USD 116.5 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 165.34 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.01% during the forecast period.

The coronavirus outbreak has less impact on the X-ray irradiator industrySince the outbreak of the coronavirus pneumonia, various measures have been taken to prevent and control the epidemic, causing consumption and production to be affected in a short period of time, and the impact has spread to all regions and multiple industries. The outbreak of the coronavirus pneumonia epidemic has affected the distributors, suppliers, retailers and other stakeholders in most manufacturing industries to varying degrees, causing the industry's production, market and sales activities to not be carried out on schedule. But for the medical device manufacturing industry, the impact is relatively small. Because the coronavirus outbreak has less impact on the downstream of X-ray irradiators, the market is not affected much by the coronavirus outbreak.

X-ray irradiators are highly regulated

The medical device industry is a highly regulated industry, and its regulatory authorities include the drug regulatory agency of the country or region where the issuer is operating. Regulatory authorities generally implement supervision over the pharmaceutical R&D service industry by formulating relevant policies and regulations. X-ray irradiators must be reviewed by the relevant local supervision and administration bureau and successfully obtained evidence before they can be sold.

The requirements for blood transfusion safety are getting higher and higher, and the market for blood irradiation is expected to achieve further growth

With the frequent occurrence of accidents in modern society, blood transfusion has become a life-saving procedure. With the continuous development of the social medical level, the requirements for the safety of blood transfusion are getting higher and higher. TA-GVHD is an immune transfusion reaction caused by lymphocytes remaining in the blood components of the patient's transfusion. Although the incidence of TA-GVHD is not high, the mortality rate is relatively high and the treatment effect is relatively poor. It is one of the most serious complications of blood transfusion.

With the development of science and technology, irradiation technology can kill and inactivate this active immune cell, so that it cannot be reproduced after being transfused into the body. Irradiated blood refers to a blood preparation that causes irreversible damage to the DNA of lymphocytes after a certain dose of radiation, and interferes with its normal repair process, causing lymphocytes to lose mitotic activity and proliferation, and to preserve the activity of other blood components. Usually whole blood, red blood cell suspension (additives are red blood cells) and various red blood cell preparations, artificial and mechanically collected platelet concentrates are irradiated. After irradiation, the blood has no radioactivity, so it is quite safe to lose any radiation to the recipient.

Region Overview:

From 2022-2027, North America is estimated to witness robust growth prospects.

Company Overview:

Faxitron (Hologic) is one of the major players operating in the X-Ray Irradiators market, holding a share of 27.25% in 2020.

Faxitron (Hologic)

Faxitron Bioptics, LLC operates as a cabinet x-ray company. The Company offers x-ray systems for specimen radiography, research, and non-destructive testing applications.

Rad Source

Rad Source Technologies, Inc. develops products that use x-ray technology for various applications in the irradiation industry.

Segmentation Overview:

Among different product types, Cabinet X-ray Irradiator segment is anticipated to contribute the largest market share in 2027.

Cabinet X-ray Irradiator

The cabinet X-ray irradiator meets the requirements of in vitro and in vivo biological research. It is a free-standing box irradiator that combines an irradiation room and system electronic equipment in a shell.

Image Guided X-ray Irradiator

The image guided X-ray irradiator effectively combines bioluminescence imaging to mark the cells of the diseased area and accurately locate the diseased area; fluorescence imaging, marking the therapeutic drug, to achieve precise positioning of the drug; X-ray imaging, irradiating the whole body structure of the sample; it can be truly In the sense, it realizes the accurate diagnosis of the diseased part, and then implements the accurate X-ray irradiation.

Application Overview:

By application, the Blood Irradiation segment occupied the biggest share from 2017 to 2022.

Among all the applications of X-ray irradiators, the largest application market is blood radiation. X-ray irradiators can greatly reduce the incidence of blood transfusion-related graft versus host disease (TA-GVHD), eliminate adverse blood transfusion reactions caused by active lymphocytes, and improve blood transfusion safety. The second largest application is animal irradiation. X-ray irradiators help biological samples in standard laboratory environments to be irradiated safely and accurately. So that the irradiated organism can produce biological effects or suffer irreversible damage and destruction, and achieve the biological purpose.
