Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/23/2016 -- Healthcare Analytical Testing Services Market by Type (Stability, Raw Materials, Method Validation, Microbial, Environmental Monitoring, Bioanalytical Services), by End User (Pharmaceutical Companies, Medical Device Companies) - Global Forecast to 2021

The global healthcare analytical testing services market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 11.3% from 2016 to 2021, to reach USD 4.13 billion by 2021 from USD 2.42 billion in 2016. Growth in this market is mainly attributed to the growing demand for analytical services for biologics and large-molecule drugs, increasing outsourcing of analytical testing by pharmaceutical companies, rising demand from the nutraceutical industry, and increasing acceptance of the QbD (Quality by Design) approach in pharmaceutical research/manufacturing. In addition, the high quality standards in the pharmaceutical industry, rapid growth in the biosimilars and biologics market, and presence of a large pool of analytical testing providers are further expected to drive the growth of this market. However, the pricing pressure faced by market players and shortage of skilled professionals in the healthcare analytical testing services industry may hinder the growth of this market to a certain extent during the forecast period.

In this report, the healthcare analytical testing services market is segmented on the basis of services, samples, end users, and regions. In 2015, the bioanalytical testing segment accounted for the largest share of the global healthcare analytical testing services market, by type. The large share of this segment can primarily be attributed to the large number of biologic molecules in the pipeline and the growing biopharmaceutical industry.
