(PharmaNewsWire.Com, September 29, 2017 ) The Latin America mycoplasma testing market was worth USD 65.12 Million in 2016 and is estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 12.3%, to reach USD 116.3 Million by 2021. The species of Mycoplasma are the smallest living organisms and are peculiar among prokaryotes due to the absence of cell wall. It is also the reason that they are not detected anti-microbial agents and for the absence of reaction to Gram stain.
They only have the minimum required components or organelles for them to replicate. Mycoplasma are largely responsible for the contamination of cell cultures in laboratories. The source of infection can be untested infected cells and contaminated individuals who enter the laboratory. Testing for the presence of newly brought cell lines is essential before conducting experiments. There are variety of testing equipment and methods available in the market.
With the lot of research being conducted on life sciences all over the world, the demand for mycoplasma testing is increasing and is expected to grow in the forecast period. Increasing funding for research activities in cell culture and increased expenditure on healthcare by government are also expected to drive the mycoplasma testing market. Sky-high costs associated with the mycoplasma testing and stringent government guidelines are hindering the market growth in this region.
