The Global Live Cell Encapsulation Market is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period. It is estimated that the global live cell encapsulation market is expected to register a CAGR ~ 3.22% during the forecast period of 2018 to 2023, with an estimated market value of USD 249.87 million in 2017.
The global market is driven by factors such as rising demand for clinical efficacy of cell encapsulation technologies and growing awareness related to the clinical role of encapsulated cells to treat different chronic diseases. Additionally, encapsulation provides the durability and stability of the nutrient during handling and storage. Thus, such benefits of this technique are luring the competitors to enter the market.
On the other hand, the lack of skilled technicians, ethical issues, and unaffordability of research organizations and small-scale companies in certain economies is restraining the growth of live cell encapsulation market. Moreover, the availability of high-quality raw material is also restraining the growth of the market. Nevertheless, changes in regulatory policies and rise in demand for effective therapies to treat complicated disorders is expected to reduce the impact of barriers over the forecast period.
Moreover, major companies in the market are involved in strategic collaborations to brace their position in the market. For instance, in August 2018, Balchem Italia S.r.l., a wholly owned subsidiary of Balchem Corporation, acquired Bioscreen Technologies, S.r.l., a privately held manufacturer of encapsulated and fermented feed nutrition ingredients. With this, the company aims to expand its position in the market.

Key Players
Balchem Corporation, Evonik Industries, Merck KGaA, BÜCHI Labortechnik AG, Lycored, Blacktrace Holdings Ltd., Living Cell Technologies, Reed Pacific Pty Limited, MiKroCaps, Biotime, Inc., Neurotech Holdings, LLC, Sernova Corporation, Encapsys, LLC, Sigilon Therapeutics, Inc., and Viacyte, Inc. are some of the key players in the global live cell encapsulation market.
Regional Market Summary
Geographically, the Americas is expected to dominate the global live cell encapsulation market due to the increasing per capita healthcare expenditure, and the heavy adoption of new technology.
Furthermore, rising expenses in research and development by healthcare bodies and the government is anticipated to drive the growth of the market in this region. Apart from this, increasing applications of regenerative medicine in the US is expecting to push the growth of live cell encapsulation market. For instance, According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), approximately 5,00,000 Americans benefit from a transplant each year.
Europe showed a considerable amount of growth in the global live cell encapsulation market. The market growth in this region is because of the presence of a well-established healthcare system and increase in chronic diseases. For instance, according to cancer research UK, there were approximately 9, 921 cases of cancer diagnosed in 2015. Such high rates of cancer are likely to increase demand for the use of next-generation sequencing as well as increase the market demands for monoclonal bodies and cellular research. These factors are expected to have a positive impact on the live cell encapsulation market.
Asia-Pacific is expected to have a sturdy growth rate during the forecast period owing to the huge patient pool of chronic diseases and government initiatives of healthcare reforms. However, less capital investment is restricting the market growth of this region.
On the other hand, the Middle East & Africa has the least share of the market due to the low disposable income. Moreover, the limited adoption of advanced healthcare facilities and limited access to treatment facilities is also expected to drive the growth of the market in the near future.
