Rat model Market size to exceed $2.3bn by 2028

  • Published Date: April 26, 2022

Rat Model Market size is set to surpass USD 2.3 billion by 2028, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.
 

The emergence of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat or CRISPR mechanism represents a notable milestone in genome editing technology that is employed in a broad range of experiments. Amongst these, the third-generation gene editing mechanism referred to as Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpCas9) possesses the immense potential to efficiently promote mutations at specific target positions in the genome. Genetically modified rats that have similarities with human anatomy and reproduce diseases are very essential for the study of numerous pathological conditions.


Clinical advantages offered by the outbred rat models will drive the rat model market revenue

Outbred segment exceeded USD 346 million in 2021. This is owing to the surging adoption of transgenic outbred rat model-based research in infectious disorders studies, quality outcomes offered in investigational research, among others. Outbred rat testing is considered as highly suitable and preferred to evaluate or model the human population. Pertaining to their phylogenetic similarities and physiological relatedness to humans, low maintenance, ease of breeding them in the laboratory, and the easy access to numerous outbred strains, these strains have been predominantly used as models of human biology and disease. Thus, the above-mentioned factors will fuel the market demand.
 

Favourable government initiatives and the adoption of microinjection technology will boost the business expansion

Rat model market from microinjection segment is predicted to register 7.4% CAGR from 2022 to 2028. Microinjection is an essential technique that is majorly used in the development of genetically modified rat models. Different microinjection mechanisms are used to generate these models based on construction and configuration requirements.
 

For instance, knockout as well as knock in rat strains, transgenic rat strains, and targeted-mutant rats are produced using this technology. The adoption of these technologies is growing worldwide due to their application in a broad range of species, effectiveness & reliability in mammals, etc. The transgenic rats produced through microinjection are playing a significant role in research concerned with several therapeutic areas comprising cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular research among others. Thus, the rise in the use of microinjection technology will foster the overall industry landscape.
