This market research study involved the extensive use of secondary sources, directories, and databases to identify and collect information useful for this technical, market-oriented, and financial study of the global biologics safety testing market.

[185 Pages Report] The global biologics safety testing market is projected to reach USD 6.2 billion by 2026 from USD 3.4 billion in 2021, at a CAGR of 12.4% during the forecast period.

The growth of the global biologics safety testing market is driven by factors such as the growth in the biologics and biosimilars markets, growing concerns over cell culture contamination, and rising biopharmaceuticals R&D activities and investments. In addition, emerging markets and increasing biopharmaceutical outsourcing are expected to provide significant growth opportunities for players in the Biologics safety testing market.

Market Dynamics

Growth in the biosimilars and biologics markets

Growing concerns over cell culture contamination

Rising biopharmaceuticals R&D activities and investments

Emerging markets offer lucrative opportunities

Increasing biopharmaceutical outsourcing

Many companies are investing heavily in the development of biologics and biosimilars. Currently, more than half of the drug candidates in the discovery stage are biologics, such as proteins, peptides, and monoclonal antibodies. Biologics are expected to contribute around half of the revenue generated by the top 100 pharmaceutical products in the coming years.

Covid-19 Impact On The Global Biologics Saftey Testing Market

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered novel coronavirus. Largely unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan (China) in December 2019, COVID-19 has moved from a regional crisis to a global pandemic. The World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic. A mix of established pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies, along with the players of the Biologics safety testing market, have stepped forward to contribute to worldwide research efforts by providing biologics safety testing for developing safety test kits and testing for treatments and vaccines manufacturing that target the infection caused by the novel Coronavirus.

Based on application, the biologics safety testing market is segmented into monoclonal antibodies manufacturing, vaccines manufacturing, blood and blood products manufacturing, cellular and gene therapy products manufacturing, and other applications. In 2020, the monoclonal antibodies manufacturing segment accounted for the largest market share. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the rising prevalence of diseases and increasing government initiatives for the development of monoclonal antibody drugs.

The geographical regions mapped in the report are:

1. North America

2. Europe

3. Asia-Pacific

4. Rest of the World (RoW)
