Market Overview
The Protein Assays Market is expected to register a CAGR of 10.9% during the forecast period. Protein assay is a widely used method to determine the amount or concentration of a specific protein or an array of different proteins sample. Estimation of protein concentration is necessary for cell biology, molecular biology, protein purification, electrophoresis, and other research applications. A wide variety of protein assays available which can be used based on considering their suitability for the application. Some of the protein assays are Bicinchoninic Acid (BCA), Bradford, Folin-Lowry, Kjeldahl and Ultraviolet absorption. Protein assays are widely used in the diagnosis of the diseases such as cancer, liver, kidney, and other infectious diseases, and in the drug discovery & development process.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), globally, cancer is a leading cause of death, accounting for an estimated 9.6 million deaths in the year 2018. Increasing incidence of chronic diseases like cardiovascular, neurological and other infectious diseases, and increasing investment in R&D activities by the biotech and pharmaceutical companies coupled with the increased funding by governments for proteomics research are the key driving factors in protein assays market.
