The Stable Isotope Labeled Compounds market is projected to grow with a CAGR of nearly 3.3% over the forecast period. The major factor attributing to the growth of the market is the increase in the incidence of cancer. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in 2018, an estimated 1,735,350 new cases of cancer will be detected in the United States and 609,640 people will die from the disease. Furthermore, the growing investments in research and development programs by the biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies is boosting the market growth. However, the high cost of the isotope compounds is the major drawback of the market.

Key Market Trends

Research and Development Segment is Dominating the Stable Isotope Labeled Compounds Market.

The growth of the segment is attributed to the increase in research and development spending. Both government and major players are investing in product development. Stable isotope tracers can be safely governed simultaneously to the same subject without compromising future studies. The plasma volume which is needed from one sample to analyze the isotope enrichment is small, allowing even preterm infants to be studied. Extensive studies are going on for biological side effects and metabolic fate of the compound. The other factors that are boosting the market growth are the increasing incidence of cancer as these are majorly used in cancer diagnostics.
