Flow Cytometry Services Market by Type of General Flow Cytometric Services, Type of Analysis based Flow Cytometric Services, Other types of Flow Cytometric Services, Type of Accreditations, Key Players, and Key Regions: Industry Trends and Global Forecasts, 2022-2035

First introduced in 1950s, the flow cytometry technique has gained significant attention in the past few decades. This can be attributed to the fact that flow cytometry has been demonstrated to be capable of overcoming various challenges associated with conventional analytical techniques, such as western blotting and immunohistochemistry. The key concerns related to traditional approaches include low specificity and sensitivity, time and cost intensive procedures, higher chances of producing false results. Specifically, flow cytometry offers several advantages over the conventional methods intended for single cell analysis. For instance, using microscopy, about 6 parameters of a single cell can be detected, whereas a flow cytometer enables the detection of up to 30 distinct parameters.

In addition, the modern flow cytometer is capable of processing over 10,000 cells per second, thereby, enabling scientists to rapidly analyze and characterize millions of cells. Currently, flow cytometry is used in a number of applications in the medical industry, including assisting in evaluation of autoimmune disorders and infectious diseases, and diagnosis of leukemia and lymphoma. The increasing prevalence of chronic conditions has led to a rise in the number of focused research efforts being carried out; this has further created a considerable demand for advanced and rapid analytical techniques to better understand the disease morphology. In this context, the adoption of flow cytometry technique has witnessed considerable growth. However, this approach often requires the use of complex and expensive instruments, which need to be operated by highly trained professionals. Several small and mid-sized players usually do not have the resources to make such exorbitant investments. Therefore, outsourcing has emerged as a preferred operational model for flow cytometry innovators, who rely on specialty contract service providers to handle various aspects of flow cytometry related services. 

At present, 30 players claim to offer a range of flow cytometry related services, including customized assay development services, manufacturing of consumables (such as dyes and buffers) used for analysis, analysis of various immune cells for various clinical and non-clinical studies, and cell line development. Further, 25 companies are currently engaged in the manufacturing of novel and advanced flow cytometers. To keep pace with the increasing demand for such services, players are not only actively undertaking initiatives to improve / expand their existing offerings but also entering into strategic partnerships with several industry stakeholders to broaden their respective services portfolios. For instance, in April 2021, Agilex Biolabs acquired TetraQ in order to further broaden its portfolio for analytical services offered via flow cytometry. Driven by the increasing number of clinical studies focused on evaluating treatment modalities against chronic disorders, we believe that the flow cytometry services market is likely to evolve at a steady pace in the foreseen future.
