Opportunity: Increasing prominence of nanoproteomics
The field of nanotechnology has been associated with several proteomics applications such as phosphoproteomics/metal oxide nanoparticles, nanostructured surfaces for protein separation, and analytical detection of biomarker proteins using array techniques. This has led to the emergence of nanoproteomics, a science involving the application of proteomics techniques aided by nanotechnology. This technique is utilized as a complementary component to revolutionize proteomics through different kinds of nanotechnology applications, including nanoporous structures, functionalized nanoparticles, quantum dots, and polymeric nanostructures.
Challenges: High cost of instruments
Companies rely on accessible structural data and trial-and-error methods to determine the compounds that either stimulate or disable target proteins. The structuring of proteins involves the use of rapid, high-throughput tools and machines. X-ray crystallography is one of the most widely used methods in proteomics, which conducts gene cloning, protein expression, and purification and crystallization of proteins. All these processes need a large number of laboratory hours, increasing the per sample testing costs. Such high prices of instruments and reagents make it difficult for developing countries to venture into the field of proteomics.
Immunoassay reagents segment accounted for the largest share of the Proteomics Market, by reagents, in 2020
The proteomics market, by reagent, is segmented into protein microarray reagents, spectroscopy reagents, X-ray crystallography reagents, chromatography reagents, electrophoresis reagents, immunoassay reagents, and protein fractionation reagents. In 2020, the immunoassay reagents segment accounted for the largest share of the proteomics market. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the availability of a wide range of reagents and the need for reliable, specific, and fast detection of diseases at the early stages.
Pharmaceutical companies segment accounted for the largest share in the market, by end user, in 2020
Based on end users, the proteomics market is segmented into hospitals, clinical laboratories, pharmaceutical companies, academic research laboratories, and other end users. In 2020, the pharmaceutical companies segment accounted for the largest market share of the proteomics market. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the increasing research funding for genomics and proteomics research and the increasing outsourcing of research activities to various pharmaceutical companies with in-house CRO services.
North America is the largest regional market for proteomics market
The global proteomics market is segmented into North America, Europe, the Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa. In 2020, North America accounted for the largest market share in the proteomics market. This can be attributed to the increasing investments in the development of structure-based drug design, growing research in the field of omics, rising demand for high-quality research tools for data reproducibility, and increasing focus on developing personalized therapeutics. The presence of a large number of global players in this region is also supporting the growth of this market.
