Protein Labelling Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Labelling Method (In-vitro, In-vivo), By Product Type (Reagents, Kits), By Application (Fluorescence microscopy, Mass spectrometry, Protein assay, Cell based-assay, Immunological techniques), By End-user (Biopharmaceutical companies, Academic & research institutes, Hospitals, Diagnostic centers), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

In September 2018, researchers from the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Bhopal, have innovated a protocol wherein a single amino acid labelling of a protein could potentially treat cancer. Protein labeling technique has emerged as an innovative alternative to the conventional technique of fluorescent proteins for the studies related to proteins.

The use of appropriate labels for the detection and purification of labeled protein and its various binding parameters is referred to as protein labeling. Though there are numerous labeling technique and molecular labels available in the market, protein labeling has proved to enhance simplicity and bring versatility to the study of proteins both in vivo and in vitro studies.

A fusion protein is generated by creating a single genetic construct which then covalently binds with protein labels providing a useful tool for protein studies. The commonly used protein labels for most of the protein studies are biotin, enzyme conjugates, and fluorescent probes. The growing importance of bioengineering and the strive for personalized medicines have accelerated the use of protein labeling.

The growth in global protein labeling market is being driven by the increasing investment in proteomic research, greater adoption towards bioengineering, and presence of number players in the market. Furthermore, the development in the probes and dyes for the use of protein labeling is also anticipated to fuel the global protein labeling market in the forecast years.

Conversely, the lack of awareness about bioengineering and protein labeling in emerging countries is the factor that can hinder the growth in global protein labeling market.

Key Players Covered

Some of the major companies that are present in the global protein labeling market are Merck KGaA, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Biotium, Abcam plc, LI-COR, Inc., ZEDIRA GmbH, NanoTemper Technologies GmbH, General Electric, TriLink BioTechnologies LLC, and other players.

SEGMENTATION

Among the segmentation of product type, the reagents are considered to hold largest share in the global protein labelling market owing to the higher cost associated with the product type combined with the larger requirement of the product in research and pharmaceutical industries.
