[189 Pages Report] The Single-use Bioprocessing Sensors & Probes Market size was estimated at USD 1.09 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 1.23 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 12.89% to reach USD 2.55 billion by 2030.
The single-use bioprocessing sensors and probes market encompasses the sales and utilization of disposable sensors and measurement devices designed for monitoring, controlling, and documenting manufacturing processes in the biopharmaceutical industry. The market growth is majorly driven by the rising demand for biopharmaceuticals, the need for cost-effective drug manufacturing, the advancement of bioprocessing technologies, and stringent regulatory frameworks mandating hygienic and sterile equipment. The increasing adoption of single-use technologies (SUT) to eliminate cross-contamination and reduce cleaning requirements in GMP facilities also contributes significantly to market expansion. Despite the growth drivers, the market for single-use bioprocessing sensors and probes faces limitations such as concerns over extractables and leachables (E&L), robust sensor calibration, and achieving high accuracy comparable to traditional sensors. The environmental impact of single-use systems, potential supply chain interruptions, and alignment with varying global regulatory standards are additional challenges impeding market growth. Integrating smart and connected sensors to enable real-time monitoring and control through improved process analytical technology (PAT) presents significant market opportunities. The trend towards automation and data analytics in bioprocessing also offers opportunities for developing advanced sensors that can provide better process insights and control, generating growth potential in the market.
Product Type: Rising adoption of benchtop control systems for improved control
Benchtop control systems are compact units designed for laboratory environments where space is at a premium. Benchtop control systems offer precise control over bioprocessing parameters and are essential for research, development, and small-scale production. Benchtop control systems typically integrate sensors and probes to regulate and monitor the bioprocessing conditions. Optochemical dissolved oxygen sensors utilize optical technology to measure the oxygen levels in culture media without consuming oxygen. Optochemical dissolved oxygen sensors are favored for their minimal drift and maintenance, making them a reliable choice for critical processes in bioprocessing. PH sensors are critical in monitoring and controlling a solution’s acidic or essential nature in bioprocessing. PH sensors are vital for ensuring product quality and safety. Single-use pH sensors have gained popularity due to their reduced risk of contamination and ease of integration into single-use systems. Pressure sensors in single-use bioprocessing are designed to measure the pressure within bioreactors, filters, and other bioprocessing equipment. Single-use temperature sensors are chosen for quick response times, accuracy, and disposability, improving process efficiency and reducing the risk of cross-contamination. Preference for single-use valves is usually due to their cost-effectiveness in preventing cross-contamination and ease of system integration.
Use: Variety of uses in single-use bioprocessing sensors & probes
The cell culture is a pivotal stage in bioprocessing, where single-use sensors and probes are essential for monitoring critical parameters such as pH, oxygen, and temperature to ensure optimal cell growth and productivity. Users prefer robust and reliable sensors that can integrate easily with single-use bioreactors and bags and maintain aseptic conditions. Filtration in bioprocessing often involves single-use sensors for monitoring pressure and flow rates to achieve optimal performance and product quality. Mixing processes rely on single-use sensors to ensure the homogeneity of solutions and suspensions, which is crucial for batch consistency. In the purification step, single-use sensors track parameters such as conductivity and UV absorbance to ensure the purity and concentration of the biologics. Pre-calibrated devices with a low risk of cross-contamination are preferred in purification. Single-use sensors for storage applications are designed to monitor storage conditions such as temperature to maintain the stability and integrity of biopharmaceuticals.
Application: Diverse applications in academic research & pharmaceutical companies
Academic research facilities often utilize single-use bioprocessing sensors and probes for small-scale studies, educational purposes, and innovation in bioprocessing techniques. Biotechnology firms extensively use single-use bioprocessing sensors and probes to develop and produce biologics, including therapeutic proteins and antibodies. The instruments need to provide precise monitoring and control capabilities due to the complexity of biotech processes. Pharmaceutical companies use single-use sensors and probes primarily in developing and producing vaccines, drugs, and other therapeutic entities.
