Cell Line Development and Characterization Services by Sources of Cell Lines / Expression Systems, Applications of Cell Lines, and Geography :…

New York, Feb. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Cell Line Development and Characterization Services by Sources of Cell Lines / Expression Systems, Applications of Cell Lines, and Geography : Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2020-2030" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p06020735/?utm_source=GNW As a result, the pipeline of biologics and biosimilars is growing at a commendable pace. Given that the development and manufacturing of such therapies require living biological systems, there has been a surge in demand for different types of cell lines. In fact, around 84% of the therapeutic proteins marketed in the last five years, were produced using various mammalian and microbial cells. A recent study revealed that over 30,000 research articles published in 33,000 journals featured data generated from experiments that used misidentified or contaminated cell lines. This is a genuine concern in the field of medical research, which is becoming increasingly dependent on cell-based assays and experimentation. Therefore, in modern medical research, proper cell line characterization is a necessity in order to preserve the authenticity and accuracy of experimental research.

Given the cost intensive nature of pharmacological R&D, medical researchers / drug developers are consistently on the lookout for ways to optimize operational efficiencies, as well as reduce affiliated costs; in this context, outsourcing has emerged as a preferred business model. Presently, there are several contact service providers that claim to have the necessary expertise to develop and characterize cell lines. The technical aspect of this field is also witnessing a lot of innovation, especially with regard to automating various steps of the cell line development process. New genome editing technologies, such as the CRISPR/Cas-9, are also being extensively used to improve the quality of recombinant cell lines. Unlike drug developers, the capabilities of service providers are usually more focused to their respective service portfolios. Moreover, such companies ensure that they have the latest upgrades in equipment and infrastructure, in order to improve the quality of services offered. In fact, in the recent past, a number of service providers offering cell lines-related services, have forged strategic alliances with and / or acquired other players, in order to further enhance their respective portfolios. Considering the growing trend of outsourcing and the ongoing efforts of service providers to improve / expand their offerings, we believe the contract services market for cell line development and characterization is likely to evolve at a steady pace, till 2030.
