[ 212 Pages Report] The global live cell imaging market size is expected to reach USD 2.8 billion by 2025 from an estimated value of USD 1.8 billion in 2020, growing at a CAGR of 8.8% during the forecast period. growing adoption of high-content screening techniques in drug discovery and rising incidence of cancer primarily drives the market for live cell imaging.

The growth in research funding and rising government funding and investment in regenerative medicine research will also support the market growth in the coming years. However, the high cost of high-content screening systems is limiting the overall adoption of these products. 

Currently, no effective treatment for COVID-19 is available in the form of vaccines or antiviral drugs, and patients are currently treated symptomatically. According to the WHO, there are 70 vaccine candidates under development, and three candidates are already being tested in human trials.

At the forefront of the COVID-19 outbreak, many researchers worldwide are engaged in the viral research of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Live cell imaging systems, including advanced microscopy systems, help researchers investigate cellular behavior during viral research.

Biomedical research requires the analysis of enormous amounts of data to develop vaccines. Therefore, major live cell imaging system providers, such as Leica Microsystems (Germany) and CytoSMART Technologies (Netherlands), have donated live cell imaging systems to assist COVID-19 researchers.

Running live cell imaging experiments successfully can be a major challenge. The conditions under which cells are maintained under microscopes decide the success or failure of the experiment. Therefore, maintaining living cells on slides is the most crucial part of the experiment. The cells used in experiments should be in good condition and function normally under a microscope in the presence of synthetic fluorophores or fluorescent proteins.

Additionally, maintaining a constant cellular environment is very important during the experiment; the cells should be grown in culture media in a carbon dioxide incubator. Temperature also plays a crucial role in maintaining cell viability in a culture.

Hence, as the cell viability and cellular environment are dependent on several specific requirements, the chances of a live cell imaging experiment being unsuccessful are high.
