Compared to the widespread methods utilized in the second half of the twentieth century, modern cell cultivation techniques are not significantly different. Despite the fact that these techniques made it possible to comprehend a variety of biological processes and that they served as determining factors for applications like drug testing and tissue regeneration, they had a number of inherent drawbacks. In actuality, conventional cell culture systems necessitate numerous and intricate manual handling techniques, which restricts the consistency of the cultivation in terms of cell yield and activity.

Additionally, long-term cell maintenance is costly, time-consuming, and demands a lot of reagents, test samples, and work. By reducing the number of operator interventions, the shift to user-friendly automated devices would favor standardizing the cultivation process, cutting production costs, and shortening the time required for cell culture preparation, thus promoting market growth for automated cell biology systems.

Sales Analysis of Automated Cell Biology Systems Market from 2015 to 2021 Vs Market Outlook for 2022 to 2032

The market value for automated cell biology systems was approximately 65.8% of the overall ~USD 19.9 Billion global bioprocess technology market in 2021.

The sale of automated cell biology systems expanded at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2015 to 2021.

Technologies like microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip represent a strategic approach to support the shift to user-friendly automated equipment. By using microculture systems in place of conventional Petri plates and flasks for cellular tests, researchers have been able to minimize the number of reagents used while still achieving high-throughput cell generation and culture in a controlled setting.

The development of tissue engineering aims to increase the possibility of replacing tissue development for regenerating or restoring organ and tissue function. Tissue engineering technology has advanced significantly in recent years, and it is now widely used in domains other than medicine, such as organs-on-a-chip, bioelectronic devices, cultured meats, and so on.

Cell culture is the primary method used for tissue engineering manufacturing. Therefore, it is crucial for tissue engineering research to maintain high standards for cell culture settings.

Modern uses of analytical system automation include clinical, pharmacological, and biomedical environments. The automatic system has played a significant role in both qualitative and quantitative analysis. Optically driven, electrochemical, and mass spectroscopic approaches have all been used as analytical techniques. Robotic automation lowers the cost of analysis while providing high precision and high system throughput.

Numerous lab-on-chip advancements have been made for cell culture and certain other biomedical applications. A cell culture device indicates the viability of the cells, nutrient consumption, nutrient output in the fermentation process, and pharmacological effect.

Because of the aforementioned factors, it is anticipated that from 2022 to 2032, the global automated cell biology systems market will expand at a CAGR of 9.0%.

What are the Major Opportunities in the Global Automated Cell Biology Systems Market?

As automated cell culture, on-chip is widely acknowledged as a benchmark parameter in existing microfluidic systems for cell biology, and a plethora of studies have been documented in the literature. At the research laboratory level, the minimization and downsizing of additional peripheral equipment are considered a fundamental necessity for the utilization of automated devices in cell culture, coupled with the need for systems that are ready-to-use in a plug-and-play mode.

Currently, the use of micro-devices for fluidic control is limited to the use of relatively complicated, specialized, and bulky external equipment and macro-to-micro interface systems, necessitating the ongoing assistance of human operators to manage fluid flow in an unstandardized and manual manner.

The systematic application of a suitably integrated control system for accurate fluid handling in a remote control framework will significantly improve the usability and readout dependability of micro-bioreactors. This is crucial in automating cell culture techniques, reducing human involvement, and significantly lowering the number of connection tubes, intake and output ports, and bulky external equipment.

The adoption of such control systems is gaining traction, owing to the above-mentioned factors, and this is set to pose lucrative opportunities for growth within the global automated cell biology systems market during the forecasted years.

What are the Factors Limiting Demand for Automated Cell Biology Systems?

Cell-based therapies have the ability to provide a successful treatment for medical disorders that are presently incurable. Their widespread commercialization has been put at risk by constraints such as scaling up and automating labor-intensive research discoveries, high production costs, and batch variance in large-scale automated manufacturing.

Additionally, even though many cell culture labs employ automated tools to do away with manual duties like handling plates, highly-trained lab staff are still required to spend hours every day maintaining these devices. As a result, the majority of benchtop automation has limitations in terms of scaling in cell culture facilities.

Furthermore, the utilization of mammalian cell culture is quickly expanding. Even though the fundamental processes for sustaining cells are quite repeatable, the majority of cell culture operations are still done by hand.

Personnel is required to perform repetitive tasks for hours on end each day, and frequently they must come in after regular working hours to cater to the cells or modify their biology to accommodate the workload. Both the workflow's throughput and its ability to be tracked are limited by this dependence on manual steps.

With the above-mentioned factors, the market for automated cell biology systems experiences a restraint in growth.
