The sample preparation market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.54%, reaching a market size of US$7,760.027 million in 2030 from US$6,792.415 million in 2025.
A process for converting chemical and biological samples into a form that can be directly inserted into an instrument for analysis is termed sample preparation. The sample preparation market includes products that are used to prepare biological and chemical samples to analyze raw materials to detect undesirable elements. Sample preparation processes and products are widely used in the pharmaceutical sector, biotechnology, laboratories, food industry, and chemical industry. The growth and progress in the chemical and biological sectors are promoting the sample preparation market growth.
The importance and application of sample preparation in pharmaceutical research are one of the major factors giving potential to the global sample preparation market growth. Every research and analysis associated with the chemical and biological sector is supported by a proper sample preparation process and analysis. The large investments of major companies and governments in promoting the research and analysis sector of the chemical, biological, and food industries is boosting the market value of sample preparation products in the global market.
Miniaturization, automation, high-throughput performance, the potential of new sample preparation instruments to integrate with existing analytical instruments, and a reduction in solvent volume and time are also pushing the market value of sample preparation products in the global market. The efficiency showcased by sample analysis in giving accurate results in chemical and biological research is also fuelling the sample preparation market growth.
The competition of major market players for developing new technologies in the pharmaceutical and chemical field is also hiking the market value of sample preparation products, as they have a vital role in giving accurate results in research and experiments. The support offered by the government and funds offered by major players in the pharmaceutical field fuelled the research activities during the pandemic period, resulting in the sample preparation market growth.
The vital role of the sample preparation process in pharmaceutical research is one of the major factors driving its market growth globally. Pharmaceutical analyses are performed utilizing various high-performance analytical instruments, even though most analytical devices cannot directly handle complex matrixes, necessitating a sample preparation step to extract and isolate the analytes of interest. The funding given for pharmaceutical and medical research by international companies and governmental organizations is boosting research activities, which also increases the market demand and value for sample preparation products.
According to a 2017 report by the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry, the global pharmaceutical industry has invested in research and development over the years, from USD 108.1 billion in 2006 to USD 156.7 billion in 2016. The increasing rate of research activities in the pharmaceutical field is also hiking the market value of the sample preparation market associated with it.
The increasing investments in the health and biological research sector are hiking the market value of sample preparation products in the global market. The funding of 17.3 million USD by the German Research Foundation (DFG) in 2018 for German sequencing centers is one of the investments in the biological research sector.
The significant investments made by developing countries in the Asia Pacific and the Middle East region in the medical and healthcare research sector are also expected to push the market value of the sample preparation market in the forecasted years.
North America is estimated to hold a significant market share in the sample preparation market. As the United States is one of the major markets for biopharmaceuticals, the research, and developments taking place in the country contributed to the large market share of the North American region. North America is expected to hold a significant share of the sample preparation market due to its advanced healthcare infrastructure, high research and development activities, presence in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, strict regulatory standards, increasing focus on diagnostic testing and personalized medicine, collaborations, biobanking initiatives, technological advancements, increased funding for life sciences research, and market competitiveness.
The region's advanced healthcare infrastructure, high research and development activities, presence of these industries, and strict regulatory standards contribute to the adoption of sophisticated sample preparation technologies. The growing focus on diagnostic testing and personalized medicine also drives the demand for accurate and efficient sample preparation methods. Collaborations between academic institutions, research centers, and industry players further foster the development of cutting-edge sample preparation technologies. The competitive landscape in the North American sample preparation market also stimulates market growth.
