Single use systems (SUS) refers to biopharmaceutical manufacturing equipment designed to be used once and then discarded. Single-use technologies offer an extremely efficient and cost-effective way to manufacture biopharmaceuticals, offering significant increases in the product quality. Biopharmaceutical companies worldwide use single-use system to manufacture drugs and vaccines using small/large scale bioreactors. Single-use technologies provide solutions that address the bioprocessing needs in the development and manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals. Moreover, single-use systems (SUS) are being increasingly used as an alternative to stainless-steel equipment for biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes.
Market Statistics:
The global single use system in biopharma manufacturing market is estimated to account for US$ 8,490.8 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2022.
Drivers:
Increase in demand for drugs and vaccines across the globe is expected to augment the growth of the global single use system in biopharma manufacturing market during the forecast period. For instance, due to the ability of biopharmaceuticals to treat previously untreatable diseases, the demand for safe, effective drugs and vaccines is also increasing. In February 2021, Bristol Myers Squibb granted a global exclusive license to develop, manufacture, and commercialize Rockefeller’s novel monoclonal antibody (mAb) duo treatment that neutralizes SARS-CoV-2 virus for therapy or prevention of COVID-19.
Opportunities:
Increase in demand for biopharmaceutical products worldwide is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities for players in the global single use system in biopharma manufacturing market. In October 2021, Waters Corp. and Sartorius teamed up to implement the BioAccord LC-MS System from Waters as new bioprocess analyzer with data connectivity to Sartorius’ Ambr bioreactor systems to deliver mass spectral data on drug substances, related analytes and cell culture media. This will greatly accelerate and improve the accuracy and the speed of tasks from clone selection to bioprocess optimization.
Restraints:
Qualifying issues related to extractable & leachable are expected to hinder growth of the single use system in biopharma manufacturing market. Due to the extractable and leachable chemicals mixed with the end product, the quality of the biological product could deteriorate. Extractable and leachable components could cause adverse effects on patients' health and product quality. Thus, biopharma products need to be assessed carefully while manufacturing and storing.
