Blood Irradiation Market Size, Share, and Analysis by 2028

The blood irradiation market is projected to reach US$ 104.37 million by 2028 from US$ 65.15 million in 2021; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.0% from 2022 to 2028.

The rising prevalence of communicable and noncommunicable disorders and increasing research and development drive the market growth. However, the high cost of blood irradiation restricts the market growth.

Blood irradiation is achieved by exposing the blood to at least 25 Gy (2500 cGy) of radiation in the center of the vessel, preventing the replication and engraftment of immunologically competent donor T leukocytes to the recipient. GvHD caused by transplants from donors is almost always fatal, so patients at risk should receive irradiated blood products as time and resources allow. Clinical indications, including acute leukemia, lymphoma, solid tumors receiving intensive chemotherapy or radiation therapy, exchange transfusions, organ transplant recipients, and preterm infants, require blood irradiation therapy. Patients affected by human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome do not require blood product irradiation as they have not been reported to be susceptible to post-transfusion graft-to-host disease.

Increase in Prevalence of Communicable and Noncommunicable Diseases Drives Market Growth

There is an increase in the number of incidence of communicable and noncommunicable diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disorders, chronic renal disease, and stroke, owing to a large population across the world susceptible to such conditions. According to World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular disorders are the leading cause of death globally, and ~17.9 million deaths are reported yearly. Additionally, the rising prevalence of communicable diseases, such as Hepatitis, influenza, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), are driving the growth of the blood irradiation market. According to WHO, 325 million people were infected with the hepatitis B virus in 2020, and 900,000 people die from hepatitis B virus infection every year. Moreover, a large geriatric population across the world is contributing to the prevalence of noncommunicable diseases, such as cardiovascular disorders, renal disorders, and strokes. According to WHO, the population of people aged 60 years and above was 1 billion in 2019 and is expected to increase to 1.4 billion by 2030 and 2.1 billion by 2050. The elderly population is susceptible to noncommunicable disease conditions owing to various factors such as poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, excessive use of tobacco, and consumption of alcohol.

Additionally, surging blood transfusion owing to an increase in surgical procedures, accidents, trauma cases, and disorders, along with the rising prevalence of bloodstream infections, supports the market growth. Bloodstream infections, underlying conditions, and invasive procedures are common among the geriatric population. Bloodstream infections are the major cause of illness and death among large populations. According to the National Library of Medicine, ~28,000 bloodstream infections occur across the world annually. Moreover, rising awareness about bloodstream infections and increasing immune responses to transfused blood can cause complications as increasing use of irradiated blood in cancer treatment strengthens the immune system and improves overall health of patients, which is driving the growth of the blood irradiation market.

Thus, the increase in the prevalence of communicable and noncommunicable disorders, rise in blood transfusion, surge in bloodstream infections, and increase in immune responses are driving the growth of the blood irradiation market.
