3D Cell Culture Market Size, Share, Trends, Growth, Production, Consumption, Revenue, Company Analysis and Forecast 2021-2030

The global 3D Cell Culture market size is expected to be worth around US$ 4.40 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Vision Research Reports.

The global 3D Cell Culture market size was valued at US$ 1.8 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 10.9% during forecast period 2021 to 2030.

Growth Factors

As 3-dimensional cultures have the capacity to closely mimic a typical morphology and microarchitecture of organs, these are continuously developed for the studies that require in vivo model systems to analyze the effect of a foreign drug over body tissues and organs. This, coupled with the availability of various choices in terms of material and structure of the scaffold for different in vitro applications, is anticipated to support revenue generation for scaffolds.

Recent researches have explored the use of a diverse range of scaffolds including graphene scaffolds, nanofibers, freeze-casting, natural marine collagen, and others. In addition, the application of lab-on-a-chip techniques in several assay types-proliferation, viability, stimulation, transport, patch clamping, high content screening, and metabolic activity-leads to a rise in demand for projects with advanced and efficient solutions.

Report Highlights

Scaffold-based technology accounted for the largest revenue share of over 68.96% in 2020. The use of hydrogels as scaffolds in 3-dimensional cell culture-based research enables the incorporation of sophisticated biochemical and mechanical signs as a mirror of the native extracellular matrix. Moreover, the launch of novel products and the increasing need for advancements in hydrogels for providing robust platforms for studying human and cellular physiology is expected to boost the market growth in the coming years.

The growing awareness, as well as popularity, of nanotechnology in biomedical research, is anticipated to create potential growth prospects for nanofiber-based scaffolds, thereby augmenting sales and demand for the scaffold-based technology. Magnetic levitational assembly of 3D tissue constructs is an emerging and fast-growing label & scaffold-free approach for tissue engineering. This is expected to drive the scaffold-free segment with the fastest CAGR over the forecast period.

The cancer segment dominated the market with the largest revenue share of 24.56% in 2020. The use of spheroids as model systems during the development of anticancer therapies drives R&D in this segment. Moreover, the use of 3-dimensional cellular models for the study of cancer biology in preclinical testing and screening is expected to increase revenue generation in this segment.

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries segment generated the largest revenue share of over 46% in 2020. 3D cell cultures have advantages in terms of optimal oxygen and nutrient gradients, non-uniform exposure of cells within a spheroid to a drug, and realistic cell-to-cell interactions in comparison to 2D cell culture to study drug candidates. These factors make 3D cell cultures better suited for drug discovery and development, thereby driving the demand.

Factors, such as the urgent need for more rapid and accurate diagnostic services and the advantages of 3D models over 2D models in providing detailed physiological information, boost the hospitals and diagnostic centers segment growth. In addition, the presence of diagnostic centers, such as Kiyatec that are actively involved in providing 3D models for advanced research, is expected to boost the segment growth in the coming years.

Academic institutes and industrial laboratories are also expected to contribute to the increasing share of this market. Workshops and training programs on 3D cell culture system provided by institutes are anticipated to drive the demand for 3D cell culture products & systems over the forecast period.

North America led the global market in 2020 and accounted for the highest revenue share of over 43%. The region will retain its leading position throughout the forecast period on account of the availability of private and government funding for the development of advanced 3D cell culture models, high healthcare spending, and the presence of a large number of universities and research organizations investigating various stem cell-based approaches. In December 2020, researchers from Mayo Clinic and Terasaki Institute, U.S., developed visible hydrogels that can be used for the monitoring and control of hemorrhage.
