Gel Documentation Systems Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Gel Documentation Systems Market Analysis

The Gel Documentation Systems Market is expected to register a CAGR of 4.10% during the forecast period.

Factors such as the prevalence of infectious diseases and genetic disorders and increasing research investments in genomics and proteomics techniques are boosting the growth of the gel documentation systems market.

With the growing number of cancer cases worldwide, the demand for gel documentation systems for research applications is expected to increase. For instance, according to the report published by the Australia Institute of Health and Welfare, in August 2023, about 162,000 new cancer cases were diagnosed in Australia in 2022, which rose to over 165,000 in 2023. As per the same source, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer were the most frequently diagnosed cancers. The increase in cancer diagnoses, particularly prostate, colorectal, and lung cancers, is driving the growth of the gel documentation systems market by necessitating advanced tools for accurate molecular and genetic analysis in cancer research and diagnostics.

Additionally, research collaborations are increasing, which is also expected to boost the demand for gel documentation systems. For example, in February 2023, the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center announced a strategic collaboration with biotech company Xilis to accelerate the development of novel cancer therapies using Xilis' proprietary MicroOrganoSphere (MOS) technology. The growing trend of research collaborations is anticipated to significantly enhance the demand for gel documentation systems, driven by the need for advanced technologies in the development of innovative cancer therapies.

Moreover, in January 2022, Eli Lilly and Company acquired exclusive rights to Entos Pharmaceuticals' Fusogenix nucleic acid delivery technology. This acquisition would allow both companies to initiate the research, development, and commercialization of nucleic acid products that target the central and peripheral nervous systems. Eli Lilly will have access to a novel delivery platform technology that can address the challenges of nucleic acid therapeutic modalities, thus contributing to the market's growth. Such developments are expected to increase the demand for research on nucleic acids and proteins, which require gel documentation systems, thus driving the market's growth.

In conclusion, the gel documentation systems market is anticipated to grow over the analysis period due to the increasing prevalence of diseases and research developments. However, the growing adoption of alternative techniques may impede the market's growth.
