3d cell culture is an environment that enables cell growth and allow them to communicate with surrounding in all the 3 dimensions. In contrast with the conventional 2D cell cultures, which allow the cells to grow flat size on a plate, 3d cell culture can be effectively grown without the support of scaffold. However, 3d cell culture may be done with the help of scaffold for allowing the cells to grow in all the directions. Some of the famous types of scaffold are inert matrices and hydrogels. Inert matrices are the sponge-like membranes that are made of polystyrene. This polystyrene contains cell pores for the reproduction process and growth. Hydrogels are the polymeric material that contains a network of cross-linked chains of the polymer. These chains can be absorbed and retain water for long. Hydrogels can be obtained either from plants (agarose/alignate), animals (collagen, matrigel), or synthesized from chemicals (QGel Matrix).
Market Industry Reports (MIR) has published a new report titled "3D Cell Culture Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2019–2030." According to the report, the global 3D cell culture market is estimated to be over US$ 600.0 Bn in 2017. It is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 19.8% from 2019 to 2030. Increasing R&D investments & funding from both private and public sector in the field of cell-based research has presented a bright prospect for the growth of 3D cell culture market. Introduction of innovative new techniques has further led to wide scale application of such techniques and application of 3D cell culture FOR artificially growing biological entities.Major Key Players of the 3D Cell Culture Market are:
