Description

The North America microplate reader market was valued at approximately US$ 274.79 million in 2023 and is projected to grow to around US$ 423.84 million by 2031, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% during the forecast period from 2023 to 2031.

Growth Drivers in the Pharmaceutical Sector

The surge in research and development (R&D) investments within the pharmaceutical industry is a significant factor propelling the North America microplate reader market. Globally, there is an increasing emphasis on drug discovery, with the US biopharmaceutical sector leading the way in the development of innovative therapeutics. The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) represents the foremost biopharmaceutical research companies in the United States, and in 2023, its member companies reported R&D expenditures of approximately US$ 96 billion worldwide. This substantial investment underscores the commitment of pharmaceutical companies to advance drug discovery, gene sequencing, and the development of targeted proteins to address the growing healthcare demands.

The rise of personalized medicine is also contributing to the heightened demand for genetic studies. Precision medicine leverages an individual’s genomic data to provide tailored treatments for specific conditions. The increasing incidence of chronic diseases has led to a greater need for biologics, orphan disease drugs, and personalized therapies. In February 2020, the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) announced a new precision medicine and genomics initiative aimed at enhancing the tools available for diagnosing and treating diseases. The advancements in genomics and proteomics are pivotal trends that are driving the growth of the microplate reader market. Consequently, the increased funding for drug discovery and development activities in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sectors is significantly boosting the demand for microplate readers. Major companies like Pfizer and Novartis are heavily investing in R&D for new drugs, relying on the high-throughput screening capabilities of modern microplate readers to expedite their research processes.

Overview of the North America Microplate Reader Market

The North America microplate reader market is segmented into three primary regions: the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The growth of this market in North America is characterized by a rising demand for advanced and rapid processing technologies among biopharmaceutical and biotechnology firms, the presence of key market players, and extensive R&D activities conducted by various academic and research institutions.

In North America, the United States represents the largest market for microplate readers. The expansion of the US microplate reader market can be attributed to a significant increase in life science research activities, including genomic and proteomic studies, drug discovery, and clinical diagnostics. For instance, in January 2020, Illumina, Inc. announced a strategic partnership with Roche aimed at accelerating genomic research and enhancing access to genomic technologies. The company is also focused on introducing new products and software, which is expected to further stimulate genomic research. This growth in genomic research is anticipated to positively influence the adoption of microplate readers in the US. Additionally, the increasing number of product launches driven by the demand for advanced processing technologies is expected to create lucrative growth opportunities for the US microplate reader market throughout the forecast period. Notably, in November 2020, Enzo Biochem, a US-based diagnostic company, launched a compact and portable microplate reader designed for clinical diagnostics.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
