Plasma fractionation is a process of segregating the derivatives of plasma. Many blood collection facilities are available around the globe, and with new technological advancements, blood collection is increasing. The rising government initiatives and investment in R&D in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sectors are anticipated to boost industry growth.
The growth of the plasma fractionation market was negatively impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Raw material shortage and slowdown of supply chain at several places hampered the industry growth. Worldwide lockdown and social distancing impacted the blood donation camp; a shortfall was seen in the blood donation programs; thus, the availability of plasma was restrained. This fractionation therapy was also used in the treatment of COVID-19 and showed a high success rate. However, as activities resumed, the rise in blood donation was noticed and is further expected to grow over the forecast period.
As the R&D in the pharmaceutical & biotechnology sectors is increasing involving plasma treatments, many major players have started working together. The treatment of COVID-19 through plasma fractionation was conducted, and observed that people were fully recovered through this fractionation therapy. It is anticipated that the cost of the fractionation therapy will rise owing to decreasing number of blood donors prone to various diseases.

The immunoglobulins market segment accounted for the highest revenue share in 2021, owing to the use of immunoglobulins products in primary and secondary immunodeficiency disorders. Immunoglobulin has various benefits in drug applications, including immunosenescence, administration, identifying metabolic disorders, curing, and immunity-based changes. With the increasing prevalence of infectious diseases, the use of immunoglobulins is expected to expand over the forecast year.
Furthermore, it is also expected that the market for coagulation factors will expand with high blood donation or transplantation, approvals of new medicines, and high bleeding disorders. The coagulation factors are majorly used in bleeding disorders like Hemophilia and Von Willebrand disease.
Based on application, neurology accounted for the highest share, with an increasing prevalence of neurological diseases and treatment of those by fractionation therapy. Additionally, the rising neurovascular illness like strokes and Alzheimer's in older people is leading to the increased use of plasma-based products for treatment.
Additionally, the oncology segment is expected to grow at a faster CAGR during the forecast period with the use of therapies for the treatment of cancer. The targets can be easily treated and cured through this fractionation therapy, which was not curable before.
The centrifugation segment dominated the market with a higher revenue share in 2021 and the fastest growth rate over the forecast period. Getting high-quality blood supernatant requires centrifugation. It also helps researchers separate blood consistently, which improves patient clinical outcomes. Thus, the industry expansion would be aided by the rising need for centrifugation tools.
Recently, the use of purification methods and industrial-scale chromatographic fractionation has risen. Coagulation factors, protease inhibitors, and anticoagulants are some of the new therapeutic plasma products that have been created. As a result, chromatography has enabled the development of novel therapeutics for treating patients with congenital or acquired abnormalities in plasma protein levels. It will therefore spur industry expansion.
In 2021, the hospitals & clinics segment had the most significant revenue share and is expected to grow during the forecast period. The category is predicted to grow considerably because of the rising off-label use of fractionation market products in hospitals to treat several ailments, improved infrastructure, and healthcare services. Furthermore, there is a high demand for these products due to the complicated illnesses that can be addressed in contemporary clinical settings.
North America dominates the regional market with the highest share owing to increasing awareness and numerous advantages of plasma fractionation market among people and increasing respiratory disorders. The expansion of the regional market is also aided by the existence of key players, an increase in the quantity of blood collection facilities, a rise in the consumption of immunoglobulin, and the availability of plasma due to the viability of plasma collections & distribution.
Asia Pacific is expected to expand the plasma fractionation market due to increasing government, private and public investment in R&D, favorable government regulations, an aging population with blood-related disorders, increased immunoglobulin use, and rising target disease prevalence are all contributing factors to the development of therapies.
