The global Flow Imaging Microscopy/Dynamic Image Analysis market is valued at USD 48.61 Million in 2022, registering a CAGR of 8.34% from 2023 to 2032. The base year considered for the study is 2021, and the forecast has been provided for the period 2023 to 2032.

Flow imaging microscopy, also known as dynamic imaging, is a technique used to investigate the size distribution, roughness, shape, symmetry, and colour of particles within samples that cannot be seen with the naked eye. This method is widely used in the investigation of novel micro and nanomaterials, particularly in the field of biotechnology. Particle imaging is a valuable analytical tool for researchers and industries investing heavily in the development of micro and nanomaterials. As a result, there is a growing demand for faster, more efficient, and dynamic imaging techniques, fueling the growth of the flow imaging microscopy market.

The term "flow imaging microscopy" refers to a method for analysing protein particles that was first developed a few years ago and has steadily grown in significance ever since. In order to identify, classify, and quantify subvisible particles for various applications, flow imaging microscopy (FIM) is a crucial tool. The fluid sample is drawn using a flow cell perpendicular to the optical path using an ultra-high precision computer-controlled syringe pump. Real-time images of the fluid particles moving through the flow cell are taken using an optical system similar to a microscope. Optional electronics can also accept two channels of fluorescence data per particle. This instrument also provided very good performance for protein particles, indicating that the formulation's refractive index had increased. Furthermore, dynamic image analysis (DIA), sieve analysis, and static laser light scattering are the most commonly used methods for constructing particle size distribution. Each technique has a distinct size range within which subdivision is possible.

Figure 1: Flow Imaging Microscopy/Dynamic Image Analysis Market

The global flow imaging microscopy market/dynamic image analysis market is mainly influenced by rising nanotechnology research activities. Furthermore, rising pharmaceutical R&D investments are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms are investing heavily in research to meet the growing demands of the healthcare industry. According to the 2019 Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) member annual study, its member companies invested USD 79.6 billion in R&D in 2018. (R&D). Collaborations between pharmaceutical companies and healthcare stakeholders for R&D into therapeutics will also drive lab automation adoption. As a result, exceeding production levels is expected to drive demand in the flow imaging microscopy market. Furthermore, stringent regulatory guidelines for product quality across all industries around the world are propelling the targeted market's growth.

However, technological limitations are expected to be the major factor limiting the growth of this market during the forecast period. The significant disadvantage of flow imaging microscopy is that particle size is limited to the depth of the flow cell. As a result, a single magnification/flow cell depth combination can only describe particles within a specific range. Furthermore, there are numerous small and medium-sized businesses that provide niche technologies. Due to budgetary constraints, SMEs in particular are having difficulty marketing and distributing instruments. This may have a negative impact on their revenue and market survival. This makes flow imaging microscopy difficult. Nonetheless, during the forecast period, emerging markets are expected to provide significant growth opportunities for flow imaging microscopy product manufacturers and distributors.

IMPACT OF COVID-19

The novel coronavirus has had an impact on a wide range of industries. It is obvious that overall growth across sectors would be severely impacted, particularly in regions where the virus is more prevalent, such as the United States, Europe, and China.

Oil and petroleum, mining, and aviation are the most severely impacted industries, while the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and healthcare industries are optimising the situation in order to reach and serve as many patients and healthcare professionals as possible. As a result, long-term market flow imaging microscopy is impacted.

Market Segmentation

Flow Imaging Microscopy/Dynamic Image Analysis, By Type: -

  • Small Biomolecules

Imaging techniques make it much easier to gain a thorough understanding of biological systems. Although imaging methodology for biomacromolecules such as protein and nucleic acids has long been established, microscopic techniques and contrast mechanisms for small biomolecules, which are equally important participants in biological processes, are relatively limited. Recent advances

Including microscopy and tailored vibrational tags, have opened up new possibilities for noninvasive imaging of small biomolecules in living cells, tissues, and organisms.

  • Nanofibers

Nanofibers are made of synthetic, natural, or a polymeric material blend that provides environmental and physical cues to support tissue growth and development. Mechanically and chemically, synthetic polymeric fibre scaffolds provide a more controllable system than natural materials.

Flow Imaging Microscopy/Dynamic Image Analysis, By Dispersion (Wet/Dry Dispersion)

The market is divided into two major categories based on sample dispersion: wet dispersion and dry dispersion. Biotechnology and pharmaceutical samples are widely dispersed in a liquid medium. The wet dispersion segment has the largest market share, owing to the increased use of nanotechnology in the food and beverage industries. Wet dispersion analysis is widely used, and factors such as comparative ease of dispersion in liquid media are driving the growth of the wet dispersion segment.

Flow Imaging Microscopy/Dynamic Image Analysis, By End Users: -

Biotechnology companies are expected to be the largest end-users of flow imaging microscopy, and this segment is also expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. The segment's expansion is attributed to an increase in demand for flow imaging microscopy as a result of the significant impact of particle sizes on the safety and efficacy of biologics. During the forecast period, factors such as the development of novel therapies to address unmet needs, increased access to medicines, and government initiatives to support biotechnology research in emerging regions aided market growth in this end-user segment. Furthermore, particle analysis of biologics is performed in the biotechnology industry during formulation development and manufacturing.

Flow Imaging Microscopy/Dynamic Image Analysis, By Region: -

In 2020, North America accounted for 33.7 percent of the global market's revenue, with the United States accounting for the region's largest revenue share contributor. Growing healthcare industry investment, rising adoption of advanced laboratory techniques, and a strong presence of key market players are some of the major factors driving revenue growth in this region.

In 2020, Europe had the second-largest revenue share in the global market. Rapid development of research facility infrastructure and increased emphasis on drug development are two key factors expected to drive market growth in the coming years.

During the forecast period, Asia Pacific is expected to have the fastest revenue growth rate when compared to other regional markets in the global market. The increasing use of nanotechnology and the implementation of government regulations to improve the quality of end-products in the pharmaceutical and food industries are key factors driving revenue growth in this region.
