---|---|---|---|
USD 3.49 Billion | USD 6.24 Billion | 6% | 2024 |
The global animal model market size was worth around USD 3.49 Billion in 2024 and is predicted to grow to around USD 6.24 Billion by 2034 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of roughly 6% between 2025 and 2034. The report analyzes the global animal model market's drivers, restraints/challenges, and the effect they have on the demands during the projection period. In addition, the report explores emerging opportunities in the animal model industry.
The animal model refers to the animals on which biological and pathological experiments are done. They become the testing materials before they are tried in the human body. There are some protocols and guidelines to be followed while leveraging animal models for studies. Both humans and animals have similar biological and physiological structures. Though animals have a shorter lifespan, they match the genotype resemblance so much that the results are parallel. Even the organic framework of those animals aligns with humans. Scientists and researchers find the cure for any disease by testing those medicinal components on animals until their trial succeeds. They also come up with new products based on the outcome they get out of those experiments. These drugs that are tested on the animals are also validated for the efficacy of the recovery. The safety quotient of the medications is also determined through these animal model tests. They find applications in all fields like research & development, production, quality control, and academics.
Growth in drug discovery and innovations in the pharmaceutical sectors drives the market growth
Drug discovery and the emergence of vaccinations have grown exponentially in recent times due to the rise of multiple diseases and chronic illnesses. This has induced scientists and researchers to come up with new treatment methods and medications at a faster pace. Hence animal model testing has increased rapidly due to these factors thereby amplifying the global market rate substantially. Researchers across the world are focusing on genetically modified models to perfect the outcomes of any testing. The metabolic ways, life processes, and organic structures of the testing animals should match with that of humans to achieve accuracy. This factor contributes to revenue growth exclusively. Cancer disease has become more prominent in many regions and medications for treatment require strenuous testing experiments which can be achieved through animal models. Research grants and government initiatives to support such a mission are also boosting the global animal model market growth across all regions. The prevalence of the geriatric population and the prominence of chronic illness amongst them also supports the market exquisitely.
Animal models are being leveraged also to understand the intensity of diseases and the symptoms associated with them. The efficacy of vaccinations and prevention procedures are also deducted with the help of animal models to a large extent. These factors offer a huge surge in the development of healthcare sectors thereby nudging the market growth.
The cost of animal model studies and the strict regulations from the authorities restrain the market growth
The expensive method of study along with all the regulations implemented by the higher officials regarding animal model testing impedes market growth. There are also vivid ethical concerns from the animal protection organizations to safeguard the animals which hampers the expansion of the market. The harmful effects of these experiments on the animals disrupt their normal life rendering them physically and mentally impaired. They also lead to lethal impact on the animals which gives a lot of concern thereby restricting the market growth.
Growth opportunities in the healthcare sectors and methods to improve the precision of test results provides opportunities for market expansion
In recent years, the demand for animal models in the research and development of new drugs and therapies has driven the market for animal models to expand consistently. Here are some market opportunities for animal models:
The high cost associated with the equipment and studies based on animal models poses a challenge to the market growth. The expensive animal model experiments and study procedures along with the facilities required for that come across as a challenge for revenue growth. The demand and leverage of these tests are restricted due to this factor which also impedes market expansion. Harmful effects on the animals due to these tests challenge market expansion.
Many new innovative programs and techniques for animal model testing have been on the rise. However, the impact it causes on the animals being tested results in their death or disruption of their regular lifestyle. This brings a lot of ethical concerns which also challenge the market expansion to some extent.
