Segmental Insights

By product analysis

How did the Enzymatic Dissociation Segment Lead the Market in 2024?

In 2024, the enzymatic dissociation segment registered dominance in the cell dissociation market. This type of product can give higher cell yield with broader effectiveness at extracting cells from dense or complex tissues as compared to other mechanical methods. Moreover, this approach offers its flexibility in different downstream applications, like flow cytometry, cell sorting, and in vitro assays. Alongside its wide-range utilization in the development of numerous cell-based therapies and its ability to minimize the amount of fibrous connective tissue present in the cell suspension, it boosts further cell viability and downstream analysis in the market.

However, the non-enzymatic dissociation segment is predicted to experience rapid growth in the studied years. This product type has several advantages, like it can preserve cell surface proteins, which is vital for downstream assays. Furthermore, non-enzymatic dissociation is favourable for sensitive cells. Also, they are obtained without animal-derived components, making them adaptable for various cell-based therapies is driving overall segment and market expansion. Whereas, non-enzymatic dissociation is greatly employed in isolating and expanding MSCs while protecting their key functional properties.

By type analysis

Which Type Held the Largest Share of the Cell Dissociation Market in 2024?

The tissue dissociation segment dominated the market with a major share in 2024. The segment is driven by rising research in oncology, chronic conditions, and breakthroughs in cell-based therapies. This type mainly contributes to the separation of cells from a tissue sample to create a single-cell suspension, which is further necessary for isolating cells for therapeutic use, research, and diagnostics.

Moreover, the cell detachment segment is estimated to grow fastest during 2025-2034. The significance of cell detachments in cell culture, particularly in culturing adherent cells, is increasingly applied in many research and therapeutic applications. Along with this, a rise in demand for monoclonal antibodies in biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical industries is immensely dependent on cell culture and, consequently, cell detachment techniques. Eventually, they encompass mechanical detachment (scraping or shaking) and physical methods, such as thermal, light, or magnetic manipulation, which can be selected based on the cell type, culture conditions, and downstream applications.

By end-user analysis

What Made the Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Companies Segment Dominate in the Market in 2024?

The pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies segment was dominant in the cell dissociation market in 2024 and will expand at the fastest CAGR. Widespread use of cell dissociation is seen in these companies, particularly in vaccine development, production of diverse biopharmaceutical products, and cancer research. Additionally, the segment is fueled by the adoption of cell dissociation in drug discovery and development, allowing the generation of single-cell suspensions, which are essential for high-throughput screening of possible drug candidates. The utilization of the single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technique relies on cell dissociation for the analysis of gene expression profiles in individual cells, demonstrating significant insights into drug responses and cellular heterogeneity.
