Stem cells are cells possessing the unique ability to self-renew and differentiate into specialized cell types, serving as the foundational elements for all living organisms. Stem cell assays are specifically designed to explore the growth of human stem cells and examine their biological activities within a controlled environment.
The primary categories within the stem cell assays market include cell viability and toxicity assays, cell apoptosis assays, cell function assays, cell identification assays, isolation and purification assays, and cell differentiation assays, among others. Cell viability and toxicity assays are employed to evaluate the physical and physiological health of cells under various conditions, such as exposure to external stimuli, chemical agents, medicinal treatments, or other factors, aiding in the determination of optimal conditions for cell culture growth. Products associated with these assays include instruments and detection kits utilized in diverse applications like regenerative medicine, therapy development, drug discovery, and clinical research. End users span government research institutes, private research institutes, and industry research.

The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to personalized medicine and cellTherapy, organoid and tissue engineering, ai and machine learning, emerging technologies, regulatory and ethical considerations.Major trends in the forecast period include 3D cell culture models, high-throughput screening, personalized medicine, crispr-cas9 and genome editing, drug safety and toxicity testing.
The rising prevalence of chronic diseases is anticipated to drive the growth of the stem cell assay market in the future. Chronic diseases are defined as ailments or illnesses that persist for three months or longer and may worsen over time. Stem cells possess the potential to treat various diseases, including chronic conditions. They facilitate the development of new antibodies and specialized cells that aid in curing chronic diseases such as cancer. For example, in 2022, data from The World Cancer Research Fund International, a UK-based organization, indicated that there were 50,700 lung cancer cases in the United Kingdom, corresponding to a rate of 30.1 per 100,000 people. That year, 16,855 women died from lung cancer in the UK, resulting in a mortality rate of 17.4 per 100,000. Furthermore, in March 2024, data from The Government of the United Kingdom revealed that in the financial year ending 2023, slightly over 1,862,500 individuals in England, or 3% of the population, received a GP diagnosis of coronary heart disease (CHD). Consequently, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is propelling the growth of the stem cell assay market.
The growing healthcare sector is projected to drive the expansion of the stem cell assay market. The healthcare sector, also referred to as the healthcare industry or healthcare system, encompasses a range of organizations, institutions, professionals, and resources committed to delivering medical services, healthcare products, and support aimed at maintaining or enhancing people's health. Within this sector, stem cell assays are utilized for drug discovery and development, toxicity testing, disease modeling, and exploring developmental biology. For example, in 2022, data from the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based national statistics organization focused on epilepsy, indicated that healthcare expenditure in the UK reached approximately $354.88 billion (£283 billion), reflecting a nominal increase of 0.7% compared to 2021 spending. Therefore, the growing healthcare sector is expected to propel the growth of the stem cell assay market in the future.
A key trend gaining traction in the stem cell assay market is product innovation. Major companies in this market are introducing new products to maintain their competitive positions. For example, in May 2022, Beckman Coulter Life Sciences, a US-based healthcare company, introduced the AQUOS STEM System designed to aid in the development of hematopoietic stem cells. This system reduces hands-on time by 95%, minimizes error-prone processes by 87.5%, and shortens turnaround times, running on the AQUIOS CL Flow Cytometer that combines sample preparation and analysis in a compact platform.
Innovative technologies such as the LIVE Cell Death Assay (LCDA) are being developed by major companies in the stem cell assay market to meet the growing demand. LCDA, an automated solution for profiling cell health, death, apoptosis, and necrosis, offers 13 viability and death-related metrics. For instance, in September 2022, Nanolive SA, a Switzerland-based biotechnology company, launched LCDA, which finds applications in drug discovery, enabling the analysis of cell conditions related to health, stress, cell death, and recovery. This method employs machine learning to automatically measure and track cell well-being and the progression of cell death while distinguishing between apoptosis and necrosis.
In July 2022, Fujifilm Cellular Dynamics Inc., a US-based manufacturer of human-induced pluripotent stem cell technologies, entered into a partnership with PhenoVista Biosciences. This collaboration aims to provide drug discovery researchers with services for high content screening imaging using iPSC-derived differentiated cells, contributing to the drug discovery process.
