Single-use Sensors for Bioprocessing Market by Type of Sensor, Type of Bioprocessing, and Key Geographical Regions: Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2021-2035

With several blockbuster drugs in the market and numerous others in the development pipeline, the modern biopharmaceutical industry is poised to grow at a significant pace over the coming years. The success of biopharmaceutical drugs has necessitated an upgrade of conventional biologics manufacturing equipment. As a result, the domain has witnessed several technological advancements, including the adoption of controllers and automated systems. Sensors and controllers are the essential elements of the bioprocess control system, which ensure that the processes continue to run within precise limits by making the necessary adjustments. Sensors transmit the information to the controller, which further instructs the valves to maintain the desirable environmental conditions in the overall manufacturing process. This helps in minimizing the risk of human errors and improving the product quality. Over time, single-use sensors have gained popularity; these sensors offer various benefits, such as low risk of contamination, ease of use, while providing the accuracy and robustness similar to the conventional measurement techniques.

A relatively larger proportion of the bioreactors are now equipped with single-use sensors, which measure variables such as conductivity, dissolved oxygen, pH and pressure. In fact, several developers are also providing customized single-use sensors as per the standard requirements of the research / manufacturing protocol. In addition, there are some single-use sensors that are pre-installed / integrated in other single-use systems such as single-use bioreactors, bags and fermenters. It is worth highlighting that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increased demand for such advanced biomanufacturing solutions, as single-use systems are extensively being used in the production of various COVID-19 vaccines. This presents lucrative opportunities for companies engaged in this domain. Driven by the increasing adoption of single-use systems / technologies, the single-use sensors market is anticipated to witness substantial growth over the next decade.
