Inclination Towards Adoption of Process Automation in Industrial Microbiology
Marketplace discussions in the industrial microbiology market indicate a push factor towards process automation of conventional methods, which lead to significant reduction in operating costs and test duration in the industrial microbiology market.
Generally, microbiologic tests are driven by factors such as specificity and sensitivity and tests for these are adopting tools based on bioinformatics, thus leading to better detection in shorter time periods, involving less costs in the industrial microbiology market. High throughput screening, less labor sensitivity and reduction in false positives are presently the prime attributes in demand by players in the industrial microbiology market.
Unmet Needs in Industrial Microbiology Include Lack of Availability of Skilled Manpower
In industrial microbiology, adoption of advanced technologies is leading to dearth of skilled manpower trained to use the new techniques. Another shortcoming is lack of computation skills. Primary respondents from the industrial microbiology market noted that another unmet need is lack of adequate computation resources. These resources are needed in industrial microbiology as everybody is moving to newer techniques. Once the new technology is being developed in industrial microbiology it can be used to acquire everything, but once the techniques are there the storage and analysis capabilities that comes with computation are the newer things which is lacking. The gap is very big when it comes to computation.
Increasing Usage of Industrial Microbiology Application in the Pharmaceutical Excipients Industry
Industrial microbiology applications are gaining popularity in pharmaceutical excipients industry. Excipients constitute 99% of a drug’s total mass. Industrial microbiology excipients include anionic polysaccharide commonly known as alginates, used as disintegrating agent in tablets and thickening and stabilizing agent in pharmaceutical suspensions and emulsions.
Another important industrial microbiology applied excipient - anionic linear polysaccharide - belonging to the glycosaminoglycans is hyaluronic acid – repeatedly used in dermatology applications. Thus, wide use of industrial microbiology excipients will boost revenue growth over the forecast period.
Shifting Production Base in APAC Region for Industrial Microbiology Applications
Major companies in the industrial microbiology market are shifting their production base with research & development activities in emerging countries such as India and China for industrial microbiology applications due to additional benefits such as low labor, production and land cost. In addition to this, the companies in the industrial microbiology market can gain market share by distributing their products in these countries and building consumer base.
Consolidated Industrial Microbiology Market Leaves Little Room for Smaller New Entrants
The industrial microbiology market is consolidated in nature with players such as Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. The company has a wide product portfolio and operates in instruments and reagent kits segment. The industrial microbiology market is almost at a monopolistic competition level, where market leaders have clearly demarcated industrial microbiology product lines and defined test type expertise.
bioMérieux has a large market share in industrial microbiology market owing to the product portfolio, which covers all the segments — reaction consumables, equipment and systems, and test types. Strict government regulations thwart entry of new players in industrial microbiology market along with requirement of major capital investment. New small players in industrial microbiology market find it difficult to survive due to long gestation period and period to break even.
