Global Color Prestained Protein Standard Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Color Prestained Protein Standard market size is predicted to grow from US$ 682 million in 2025 to US$ 985 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2026 to 2032.
In 2024, the global production of color prestained protein molecular weight standard was 7.15 million vials, with an average price of US$87 per vial.
A Color Prestained Protein Standard is a mixture of proteins of known molecular weights that are pre-labeled with colored dyes. It is used in protein electrophoresis, such as SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis), to estimate the molecular weights of proteins in a sample and monitor the electrophoresis process in real time.
The upstream supply chain for color-labeled pre-stained protein molecular weight standards mainly includes high-purity protein raw material suppliers, dye and buffer manufacturers, and packaging consumable manufacturers. Representative companies include Merck (Sigma-Aldrich), Thermo Fisher, Cytiva, GenScript, and Takara Bio. Downstream customers are primarily research institutions, university laboratories, biopharmaceutical companies, and CRO service providers, such as Pfizer, Roche, BeiGene, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences' system laboratories. They extensively use this standard in protein expression, purification validation, and molecular biology research to ensure the accuracy and reproducibility of experimental results.
The development trends of this product are mainly reflected in improved resolution, standardized labeling colors, widespread adoption of pre-mixed ready-to-use formulations, and enhanced compatibility with digital detection. Driving factors include continued growth in global biomedical R&D investment, expanded production scale of proteomics and recombinant proteins, widespread adoption of automated electrophoresis systems, and increased requirements for research reproducibility. Obstacles include the high price of high-end molecular marker reagents, the significant temperature-dependent stability of proteins, and insufficient market education regarding the demand for color standards in some regions.
An annual production line can produce approximately 300,000 to 500,000 standard samples. Standardized brand companies generally have higher gross profit margins, ranging from 45% to 55%, with some high-end ready-to-use products reaching 60%.
