Cell Counting Market size is estimated to cross USD 24 Billion by the end of 2035, growing at a CAGR of 12% during the forecast period, i.e., 2023-2035. In the year 2022, the industry size of cell counting was over USD 8 Billion. The growth of the market can be attributed to the rising incidence of chronic diseases. The rising demand for biologics for the treatment of chronic illnesses is predicted to increase further in the years to come. For instance, different cell counting tools are employed during the creation of biologics. Further, an increase in the consumption of unhealthy foods, and rising stress levels among people across the globe are also expected to add to the market growth. As per estimates, more than 50% of individuals in the US had at least one chronic illness in 2018.
In addition to these, factors that are believed to fuel the market growth of cell counting include the growing popularity of cell counting instruments. For instance, the use of cell counting tools is expanding across a wide range of academic fields, including neurology, cancer biology, and immunology. Further, they are widely utilized in cancer research. Additionally, the growing technological advancements in cell counting devices are predicted to present the potential for market expansion over the projected period.
Growth Drivers
Growing Prevalence of Infectious Diseases – On account of the increasing population density, the market is expected to expand more in the upcoming years. As of 2018, more than 30% of people in India had infectious illnesses.
Rising Geriatric Population – Elderly population is more prone to chronic illness, which is estimated to drive market growth. The percentage of individuals over 60 in the world will nearly double from 12 to 22% between 2015 and 2050.
Rising Number of Blood-Related Problems – Specific nutrient deficiency resulting from poor diet, and unhealthy lifestyle among people, is estimated to drive the market growth. Further, blood problems are caused by a variety of factors, such as genes, side effects of certain drugs, and other illnesses. In Australia, blood cancer and other associated blood illnesses are predicted to claim the lives of over 5,000 persons in 2022.
Increasing Health Spending – According to the most recent expenditure data, health spending in the US rose by over 9% in 2019.
Surging Incidences Target Diseases such as HIV – HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) targets immune system cells. After being diagnosed with HIV, the CD4+ cell count is routinely assessed. An immunosuppressed state from HIV is indicated by a low CD4 level, which is anticipated to drive market growth. It was discovered that there were over 38 million HIV-positive individuals worldwide in 2021.

APAC Market Statistics
The Asian Pacific cell counting market, amongst the market in all the other regions, is projected to hold the largest market share by the end of 2035. The growth of the market can be attributed majorly to the increasing cases of cancer. Low blood counts are most frequently a side effect of chemotherapy in cancer patients, which is expected to boost the demand for cell counting in the region. A full cell count can assist assess whether or not a patient's disease will progress under certain conditions. Cell counting is also used for determining primary tumors, circulating tumors, and others. Further, the expanding use of stem cell treatment in nations including China, Japan, India, and others, is also anticipated to contribute to the market growth in the region. In addition, the region's expanding healthcare industry is also anticipated to boost market growth during the forecast period. As per data, in Southeast Asia, there were over 150 thousand new cases of breast cancer in 2020.
North American Market Forecast
The North American cell counting market, amongst the market in all the other regions, is projected to grow with the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of the market can be attributed majorly to the growing prevalence of cardiovascular and blood disorders. Almost half of all Americans suffer from cardiovascular disease, which can be brought on by factors including diabetes, smoking, high blood pressure, poor diet, and inactivity. Many risk factors for cardiovascular disease are connected to WBC count, which is anticipated to increase the region's demand for cell counting. For instance, smokers have a greater WBC count, which increases the risk of dying from coronary heart disease.
