Gel Documentation Systems Market

Market Overview:

The global gel documentation systems market size reached US$ 312.5 Million in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 388.6 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.52% during 2023-2028.

Gel documentation systems record and measure labeled nucleic acid and protein in different types of media, such as agarose, acrylamide, or cellulose. It comprises a light source, transilluminator, closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera for capturing the image, and a dark room or hood to shield the body from ultraviolet (UV) light. It relies on stain-free technology to make proteins fluorescent directly in the gel with short photoactivation. It is employed in the rapid evaluation of gels post electrophoresis to save chemicals and time. It assists in separating proteins based on molecular weight due to high sensitivity, enhanced speed, and improved signal stability. Apart from this, it aids in gel and blot imaging, colony counting, immunoassay, multiplex protein detection, monoclonal and polyclonal antibody binding affinities, post-translational modification characterization, 2D electrophoresis, and protein quantitation.

Gel Documentation Systems Market Trends:

The growing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, arthritis, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease, represents one of the key factors driving the market. In addition, the rising utilization of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods for the diagnosis and detection of diseases is contributing to the growth of the market. Besides this, governments of several countries are investing in genomic, proteomic, and electrophoresis techniques, which are positively influencing the market. Moreover, the growing employment of gel documentation systems for the imaging of gels in molecular biology techniques is offering a positive market outlook. Apart from this, there is a rise in the adoption of genomic data analysis software in pathology laboratories across the globe. This, along with the thriving healthcare industry, is propelling the growth of the market. Additionally, the increasing application of advanced techniques, such as deoxyribonucleic acids (DNA) diagnostics and western blot, for the detection of protein from a sample is bolstering the growth of the market.
