Industrial Microbiological QC Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028F
Industrial Microbiological QC market is anticipated to witness impressive growth during the forecast period. This can be ascribed to the high demand for food security across the globe, along with the growing demand for advanced testing for the detection of microbiological contamination in laboratories. Additionally, the growing usage of industrial products such as multivitamins, probiotics, and other supplements will further demand the industrial microbiological QC market in the forecasted period. Also, the growing demand for vitamin capsules, chewable tablets, and other nutraceutical products for treating various conditions in the populations, especially in the pediatric and geriatric populations, will drive market growth over the years. Similarly, an increase in the demand for microbiology testing to assure the quality of the product is expected to enhance the demand for the industrial microbiology QC market over the years. In June 2022, STEMart launched comprehensive microbiological and sterility testing services for sterile, non-pyrogenic products.
Growing Demand for Microbiological Quality Control
Microbiological testing is reasonably spread across the globe due to the growing communicable disease among the population. Growing automation in microbiological techniques provides significant time and cost savings while also reducing the potential for human error. It will enable the provision of consistently reliable and accurate results. There are some commercially available automated and semi-automated systems that are based on different technologies, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), next-generation sequencing (NGS), MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, flow cytometry, bioluminescence technology, and enzyme-linked fluorescent assay (ELFA). Most of these technologies are used for the detection of contamination and providing efficiency gains when compared to other traditional laboratory technologies and therefore have significant potential for both time and cost savings. Hence, these technologies are rapidly adopted by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies as well as research institutes for the detection and identification of pathogens and other microorganisms in the manufacturing process of industries to avoid further chances of product recalls. In 2020, the US Government made it compulsory for all food & beverages & pharmaceutical companies to undergo sterile testing for the toxicity level of microbial traits.
Growing Awareness About Real-Time Monitoring
The growing awareness about different new techniques for the detection of microbiological contamination in pharmaceutical laboratories and research laboratories while preparing microbial products which will further boost the market growth during the forecasted period. Recently, automated microbial detection systems have been developed for easy detection of unwanted bacteria, yeast, or virus presence in products which has driven the market growth over the years. In 2020, Thermo Fisher Scientific Company acquired Phitonex Inc., a developer of a spectral dye platform for high-resolution biology applications for advancing R&D in cell therapy. Similarly, the growing demand for rapid microbial testing processes in the QC lab for enhanced and accurate data will demand the industrial microbiological QC market in the forecast period.
