Embryo transfer refers to the transplantation of a mammalian pre-implantation embryo into the reproductive tract of a recipient female so that it may implant and continue to develop to birth. Furthermore, incubators in the IVF laboratory play a key role in providing a stable and appropriate culture environment required for optimizing embryo development. In order to grow embryos in the laboratory, conditions must be absolutely perfect. Moreover, the embryo incubator provides conditions, which controls the temperature, humidity and the concentrations of essential gases such as oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen. Additionally, older embryo incubators are referred to as single gas or CO2 incubators, since they only supply CO2 (carbon dioxide). Embryo incubators incorporating the newest technologies are referred to tri-gas or low oxygen embryo incubators. Moreover, studies have shown that tri-gas incubators have superior embryo development and improved pregnancy rates compared to older CO2 incubators.
The increase in number of people suffering from infertility issues and improper diet are key factors driving the embryo incubator market globally. In addition, changes in lifestyle is also the factor that is raising the growth of the embryo incubator market globally. However, factors such as variable success rates of in-vitro fertilization and lack of awareness in healthcare professional to handle the embryo in the incubator are hampering the global embryo incubator market. Whereas, advancements in the embryo incubator technologies is expected to offer beneficial opportunities for the expansion of the market.
The embryo incubators market is segmented by product type, portability, end user and geography.
Various product types of embryo incubator market were studied in this report such as tri-gas incubators with camera and tri-gas incubators. The tri gas incubators are very beneficial lab equipment’s which dominate the in-vitro embryo development and many more. Along with optimum temperature and humidity-controlled environments, a tri gas incubator also provides a perfect ambiance for cell culture by controlling the levels of nitrogen, oxygen and carbon dioxide inside the incubator chamber, in an optimum level.
Based on portability, the embryo incubator market is divided into stationary incubators and multi-room incubators. The multi-room incubators consists number of chambers. This chambers format prevents cross-contamination while HEPA+VOC filtration cleans the airstream. The chambers are also independent of each other, hence, any disruption such as temperature drop when opening the lid will have no impact on the rest of the system. One of the advantages of multi-room incubator is the speed of recovering temperature and gas parameters after opening a chamber.
Based on end user, the market is segmented into hospital, research laboratories, fertility clinics and cryobanks. The rapidly advancement in technology has enabled the establishment of new fertility clinics around the world. The various fertility clinics provide counselling sessions to couples having infertility problems, owing to a number of factors like stressful lifestyles, inadequate nutrition, side effects of drugs, physiological problems, infections etc.
The embryo incubator market report is studied across the key countries of Asia-pacific, North America, Europe and Rest of World. The North America is expected to account for the largest share owing to presence of various key players coupled with high acceptance ratio of IVF and surrogacy. Whereas, the Asia Pacific is projected to witness the significant growth in near future due to the increasing number of IVF centers, rapid urbanization and rising awareness among the population regarding the use of IVF.
The key players operating in the embryo incubator market includes Cook Medical Inc., EMD Sereno Inc. (sub. Merck KGaA), Esco Micro Pte. Ltd., Genea Biomedx, IVFtech, the Baker Company, Thermo Fisher Scientific and Vitrolife. New product launches, research and development and mergers & acquisitions are the key strategies adopted by market players to ensure their growth in the market. For example, in December 2017, Genea Biomedx announced the FDA 510k clearance for its benchtop incubator Geri. This incubator designed to offer individualized and undisturbed incubation for embryos during IVF treatment, provides stable culture conditions in an optimal environment.
