Based on the product, the cell dissociation market is segmented into enzymatic dissociation, non-enzymatic dissociation, and instruments & accessories. Enzymatic dissociation is further divided into trypsin, collagenase, elastase, papain, hyaluronidase, DNase, and other enzymes. The enzymatic dissociation segment held the largest market share of 47.9% in 2022. Enzymes are highly effective at breaking down cell-to-cell and cell-to-substrate adhesions. They efficiently detach cells from culture surfaces and tissues, making them a preferred choice for routine cell dissociation applications. Also, enzymatic dissociation methods are versatile and compatible with a wide range of cell types and tissue sources. This versatility makes them suitable for various research and bioprocessing applications, from stem cell culture to cancer cell isolation. Moreover, they can be scaled up for industrial bioprocessing and large-scale cell culture applications. This scalability is essential to produce cell-based therapies and biologics.

Based on the application, the cell dissociation market is fragmented into tissue dissociation and cell detachment. The tissue dissociation segment dominated the market in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 842.5 million by 2032. Tissue dissociation methods are versatile and applicable to a wide range of research areas. They are used in cell biology, immunology, neuroscience, cancer research, regenerative medicine, and drug discovery. Researchers frequently require tissue dissociation techniques to isolate and study specific cell populations within various tissues. The pharmaceutical industry relies on tissue dissociation techniques to create cell-based assays for drug screening and testing. Dissociating tissues allows researchers to study how potential drugs interact with specific cell types and tissues, accelerating drug discovery and development. Furthermore, tissue dissociation is used to obtain cell populations for genomic and proteomic analyses, including DNA sequencing, gene expression profiling, and protein analysis.
 

Based on the end-user, the global cell dissociation market is divided into pharmaceuticals and biotechnology companies, research & academic institutes, CROs, and other end-users. The pharmaceuticals & biotechnology companies’ segment is expected to show significant expansion of 15.6% by 2032. Pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies are at the forefront of drug discovery and development.
