Market Overview

Mycoplasma is a microorganism that is known for causing respiratory tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases among human beings.  The increasing respiratory and sexually transmitted disease cases is unraveling the importance of utilizing mycoplasma testing in the pharmaceutical, and food manufacturing settings. The ongoing research activities focusing on designing compatible mycoplasma testing tools are optimally influencing the market growth.

  • For instance, in January 2023, a study published in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology conducted a comparative study of five commercial molecular assays aiming to develop mycoplasma testing for cellular therapy products.

Mycoplasma Testing Market size

Moreover, as per a 2022 study published in Cytotechnology Journal, mycoplasma is expected to present in nearly 35% of cell cultures incorporated in research and therapeutics development.  It is capable of changing cell physiology in cell cultures, and is unable to identify through a microscope. This is making the researchers undergo mycoplasma testing in their research procedures, driven by their potential to alter research findings.

Growth Drivers

Rising research studies exploring mycoplasma detection

The growing knowledge about the effect of certain microorganisms in disrupting body functions is showcasing the importance of ensuring the contaminant-free laboratory environment at the time of therapeutics development. Moreover, the increasing studies working on creation of effective mycoplasma detection tools are anticipated to showcase significant growth opportunities in the coming years. For instance, a 2023 study published in MDPI focused on exploring the development and evaluation of qPCR assays for mycoplasma detection in cell cultures.

The growing incidence of mycoplasma-related health issues

Food and healthcare sectors showing emphasis on promoting consumer safety. This shift is significantly supporting the demand for mycoplasma testing, driven by growing prevalence of health problems driven by the intake of mycoplasma-contaminated medicine, therapies, and food products. According to the National Health Commission, in November 2023, China registered a significant rise in hospital admissions and outpatient consultations due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae. This trend is expected to drive new potential opportunities for mycoplasma testing in the forecast timeframe.

Restraining Factors

The unwillingness to adopt new technological solutions

The higher costs of deploying testing infrastructure, along with the need to adopt new technological innovations, are expected to restrain mycoplasma testing market growth. Academicians and researchers are anticipated to show reluctance to embrace the latest innovations, due to the familiarity and convenience of traditional methods, embarking on a significant obstacle to the expansion of the mycoplasma testing market.
