DUBLIN, May 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Flow Cytometry Market" report to their offering.
Flow cytometry is a laboratory analytical technique that can rapidly measure multiple parameters of individual cells or particles as they pass through a beam of light, typically a laser. The global flow cytometry market remains one of the fastest-growing segments of life sciences and clinical diagnostics markets. In the current life sciences research, pharmaceutical drug discovery and development, and clinical diagnostics markets, flow cytometry offers some of the brightest promise for growth and innovation.
The purpose of this report is to provide a detailed analysis of the global flow cytometry market, including size, growth, technology platforms, applications, new instrumentation, industry trends and the internal structure of the sector. The study covers highly attractive growth areas such as stem cell research, biomarkers and companion diagnostics, CD4 testing, high throughput screening and immunology and vaccine development.
It also analyzes almost all of the companies known to be marketing, manufacturing or developing flow cytometry products in the U.S. and worldwide. Additionally, this review provides detailed tables, charts and figures with past and projected sales data by geographic region for North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the emerging BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) markets.
