Cell Lysis Market - Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2017–2025

Cells are defined as the basic unit of life that can replicate independently also referred to as the building blocks of life. Cells contain biomolecules such as proteins or nucleic acids present in the cytoplasm and enclosed within a membrane.

Cell lysis is a process in which a cell membrane is ruptured due to some external forces or conditions such as viral infection or osmosis, resulting in the release of cell contents,  thus  resulting in subsequent death of the cell. In industries and research laboratories,  cell lysis is often used to break open the cell to study its internal components. The  two methods through which cell lysis can be achieved include mechanical and chemical methods. Mechanical cell lysis method includes high shear mixing, sonication, freeze or thaw cycles, traditional homogenization, grinding, and high pressure homogenization whereas, chemical lysis method comprises of osmotic lysis, and the use of detergents, chelating agents, and chaotropic agents.

The increase in protein purification studies/concept to boost the cell lysis market

The major factors contributing to growth of the cell lysis market are increase in research and development activities in industries. The research activities being carried out  in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are related to protein, DNA, and RNA, to help explore prospects of novel biotherapeutic and pharmaceutical drugs. The extraction of proteins or nucleic acid is not possible without cell lysis, thus driving growth of the market. The other factors driving the cell lysis market growth include the increasing number of cancer cell studies, lung diseases, biotechnology firms, and growing focus on personalized medicine. However, one of the biggest challenges that the market is coping with is high costs associated to cell-based research.
