The drug discovery sector is the major end-user of cell-based assays. Characterized by versatility, cell-based assays represent a powerful research tool that provides valuable information for successful R&D. Cell-based assays also facilitate in studying biological characteristics of target drug compounds and their impact on cells/cellular systems in terms of activation of cell receptors, alteration in gene activity and expression of proteins. These assays are therefore emerging as a preferred tool for screening potential drug molecules. Cell-based assays also play an important role in toxicology testing in early stages of drug discovery, thereby reducing overall costs and the risk of clinical trial failures. Additionally, the market is being driven by the availability of high throughput screening (HTS) systems and advanced technological innovations such as development of label-free cell-based assays. Growing focus on expansion of drug portfolios and the ensuing increased investments in new drug development by pharma majors will generate lucrative opportunities for growth in the coming years.
The upcoming report will offer coverage on major companies including BD Biosciences, Beckman Coulter Inc., EMD Millipore, GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Life Technologies Corp, and Qiagen NV, among others.
In addition, the study will also provide:
- Valuable market based intelligence on new emerging trends, growth drivers, issues and challenges.
- Current coverage on company information and latest news and events including strategic corporate developments, and product innovations
- Fresh research perspectives, statistical findings, analyst analysis, and commentaries
- Accurate market estimates, projections, and forecasts across major market segments (Assay Kits (Functional Assays, Cell Death-Associated Assays, Cell Growth-Associated Assays) and Laboratory Automation) and geographic regions (the United States, Japan, Europe, and Rest of World).
