Cell sorters are utilized for separation and purification of various cell populations and sub-populations from a complex mixture of cells. A cell sorter separates the target cell population based on their intracellular or extracellular properties (such as protein or enzyme expression; cell size and shape; and presence of specific biomarkers). Key application of cell sorters is in research which includes fields such as immunological research, cancer and stem cell research, diseases diagnosis, and drug development.
The cell sorting market is expected to reach USD 247.4 Million by 2021 from USD 176.5 Million in 2016, at a CAGR of 7.0% between 2016 and 2021. Factors such as technological advancements in cell sorters, rising funding and investments for development of innovative cell sorting techniques, growing adoption of cell sorter techniques in research activities, and launch of specific reagents for specific applications are driving the growth of this market. However, factors such as the lack of awareness and technical knowledge regarding the use of cell sorters and high cost of instruments are hampering the growth of this market.
