However, factors such as the high cost of instruments and laboratory documentation systems are expected to restrain the growth of protein antibody engineering market during the forecast period.
North America accounted for the largest share of the global protein engineering market in 2019
The global protein antibody engineering market is segmented into four major regions, namely, North America, Europe, the Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. In 2019, North America accounted for the largest share of the global protein antibody engineering market, closely followed by Europe. Factors such as the presence of well-established CROs, rising R&D expenditure, and the availability of the latest techniques and instruments for drug discovery research are responsible for the large share of the North American market. However, the Asia Pacific market is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This can majorly be attributed to the advancements in genomics and proteomics research and government initiatives and funding for protein-based drug research in several Asia Pacific countries.
The major companies operating in the protein antibody engineering market include Thermo Fisher Scientific (US), Danaher Corporation (US), Agilent Technologies (US), and Bio-Rad Laboratories (US).
Thermo Fisher Scientific (US) held the leading position in this market primarily due to its strong portfolio of protein engineering consumables, instruments, and services. In addition, the company has strengthened its market position through the expansion of its product portfolio by launching new products every year.
Recent Developments:
