NEW YORK, July 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global mycoplasma testing market was valued at USD 606.9 million in 2017, and is expected to reach USD 1358.2 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 12.3% during 2018-2024. The growth can be primarily attributed to the increasing incidence of mycoplasma contamination, and increasing research and development activities in the field of life sciences. In addition, increasing capital investment in the field of life sciences coupled with stringent regulatory norms to reduce contamination is also projected to drive the market during the forecast period.
Mycoplasma testing providing growth opportunities for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry
Cell culture has become an important tool for medical and biological research. In the biotechnology sector, they are increasingly used for drug screening and development, and large-scale manufacturing of biological compounds. Moreover, the application of cell in regenerative medicine, research laboratories, and biotechnological productions is growing extensively. Mycoplasma contamination affects the cell line growth and also affects the cell physiology and metabolism. The contamination may occur via contact with other formerly infected cultures. The mycoplasma contaminates the final biological products such as viral vaccines, immunologic modulators, cytokines, monoclonal antibodies, cell therapy products, resulting in the loss of the batches. Mycoplasma contamination is a significant problem in the biopharmaceutical industry, as it is a common cause of contamination in cell culture. There are various testing methods to confirm mycoplasma contamination such as staining, PCR (polymerase chain reaction), microbial culture techniques, ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), enzymatic methods, among others. All methods give effective results with both infected and non-infected cell lines. With Increasing research and development activities and growing demand for biopharmaceutical products, regulatory bodies such as FDA and EMA are expected to increasingly approve mycoplasma testing for biopharmaceutical products in coming years.
