South & Central America Microcarriers Market

The South & Central America microcarriers market is expected to grow from US$ 68.77 million in 2022 to US$ 129.96 million by 2030. It is estimated to register a CAGR of 8.3% from 2022 to 2030.

Automation of Cell and Gene Therapy Manufacturing Services Drives South & Central America Microcarriers Market

Incorporating automation in cell and gene therapy manufacturing would lead to a reduced risk of contamination, improved consistency, and decreased cost of production. Lonza Cocoon and the CliniMACS Prodigy system from Miltenyi are a few of the devices available in the market that have been designed to enable the automation of most sequential unit operations for a CAR-T process within a single system. The rising demand for cell and gene therapies has shifted production from a small-volume process to a large-volume process worldwide. The progress of cell and gene therapy from an academic and clinical setting to mass production and commercialization further propels the demand for automation in commercial manufacturing. Thus, automation is emerging as a new trend in the microcarriers market.

South & Central America Microcarriers Market Overview

The South & Central America microcarriers market is segmented into Brazil, Argentina, and the Rest of South & Central America. A surge in various research activities, rising healthcare expenditure, growing investments in biotechnology, burgeoning incidences of infectious diseases, and government efforts to promote the utilization of immobilized cell culture media to ease the healthcare processes are major factors contributing to the growth of the market. According to a report titled "First Gene Therapy Products Approved in Brazil," published by Law Business Research 2020, Brazil is among the first Latin American countries to approve the marketing of gene therapy products. The Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA) has granted marketing authorization for Novartis' gene therapy products-Luxturna and Zolgensma. Both products were approved by the Brazilian Technical Commission of Biosafety (CTNBio), which is responsible for evaluating the biosafety of genetically modified organisms in Brazil. In September 2021, Sorrento Therapeutics began subject enrolment in the Phase II clinical trial of human allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (COVI-MSC) for treating COVID-19 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or acute respiratory distress (ARD) in Brazil. Thus, such advancements in cell therapy boost the growth of the microcarriers market in Brazil.
