Magnetic Beads Global Market Report 2024

The magnetic beads market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.18 billion in 2023 to $2.46 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic, increased healthcare expenditure, and the rapid growth in the elderly population.

The magnetic beads market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.1 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to government initiatives for genetic and microbiological research, the growth in the medical technology sector, and the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases. Key trends expected in the forecast period involve the development of new technological solutions, a focus on launching magnetic beads modification services to enhance cell isolation, RNA/DNA extraction, and protein purification, and the introduction of magnetic bead separation plates for cost-efficient nucleic acid testing.

Government initiatives aimed at advancing genetic and microbiological research are anticipated to drive the growth of the magnetic beads market in the upcoming forecast period. Various countries' governments are actively implementing national plans to integrate advanced microbial genomics research, which is expected to elevate the demand for magnetic beads essential in diverse genetic and microbiological research applications. As an illustration, in February 2021, the Australian Government Department of Health released a national plan focusing on the integration of microbial genomics into the Australian public health system. This strategic move aims to enhance national surveillance and response capabilities concerning communicable diseases, antimicrobial resistance, and biothreat agents with clinical and public health significance. Consequently, the magnetic beads market is poised for growth due to the supportive government initiatives in the realm of genetic and microbiological research.

The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is set to serve as a catalyst for the magnetic beads market. Chronic diseases encompass a broad range of conditions lasting one year or more, necessitating ongoing medical attention, limiting daily activities, or both. Given the rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart diseases, there is a heightened demand for advanced diagnostic technologies employing magnetic beads for cost-effective and efficient diagnosis. The use of magnetic beads streamlines the diagnostic process by eliminating the need for vacuum or centrifugation, thereby reducing stress on the target molecules. This method also entails fewer steps and reagents. For instance, according to the World Health Organization's data in September 2023, approximately 74% of the 41 million global deaths were attributed to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) or chronic diseases annually. The breakdown included 17.9 million deaths from cardiovascular diseases, 9.3 million deaths from cancer, 4.1 million deaths from chronic respiratory diseases, and 2.0 million deaths from diabetes. Hence, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases is poised to be a significant driver for the magnetic beads market in the forecast period.

Technological advancement stands out as a prominent trend gaining momentum in the magnetic beads market, with key players focusing on innovation and expanding the applications of magnetic beads to secure a larger market share. An illustrative example is Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., a US-based healthcare company renowned for developing and manufacturing reagents, kits, consumables, and testing kits. In October 2022, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. is set to unveil Dynabeads Technology. This innovative technology features paramagnetic spherical polymer particles and finds primary applications in messenger RNA (mRNA) synthesis and purification for manufacturing and vaccine development, as well as carboxylic acid for RNA purification solutions.

Market players in the magnetic beads segment are introducing microplates, specifically magnetic bead separation plates, to facilitate cost-efficient nucleic acid testing. Magnetic beads play a crucial role in nucleic acid extraction processes. Compared to column extraction, magnetic bead-based nucleic acid extraction reagents demonstrate enhanced compatibility with automation systems. This compatibility addresses the increasing demands for high efficiency and reliability in large-scale nucleic acid testing. For instance, in July 2022, Porvair Sciences, a UK-based manufacturer specializing in consumables, porous plastics (Vyon), and instruments for life science and analytical laboratories, launched a 96-well deep well microplate tailored for labs utilizing magnetic beads in applications such as nucleic acid purification, clean-up, and protein purifications. The 96-well magnetic bead separation plate features a reinforced base capable of routine centrifugation at up to 6,000 x g, facilitating faster magnetic bead separation protocols and enhancing sample quality.

In August 2022, BIC, a leading company based in France renowned for its stationery, lighters, and shavers, completed the acquisition of Advanced Magnetic Interaction for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move reinforces BIC's research and development capabilities, particularly in the realm of Digital Expression - a key focus area of BIC's Horizon strategic plan. The acquisition is expected to accelerate the deployment of Advanced Magnetic Interaction's patented technology, with a particular emphasis on B2B activities in Digital Creative and Consumer Electronics applications.
