Western blotting also known as protein blotting and immunoblotting, is a core technique used in cell and molecular biology. This process is used to detect the presence of a particular protein in a complex solution that has been extracted from cells. Western blotting is being used widely to confirm gene expression, demonstrate antibody specificity, diagnose diseases, and detect post translational modifications. Proteins are separated by gel electrophoresis based on molecular weight of proteins.
The western blotting market growth is attributed to the application in the field of proteomic research, rising prevalence of Lyme & HIV, increasing investment in R&D by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. However, alternative technologies for protein detection hinder the growth of the market.

Western blot the widely used technique in study of Proteomic. Proteomic is study of proteomics which is developed in an organism. Proteomics are used to study how protein are expressing in the biological systems, number of protein produced in time, protein degradation, protein modification process ,transfer of protein between cellular compartment, the association of proteins in metabolic pathways and also the protein interaction with one another. Identifying the cell signaling molecules is one of the many advantages that the western blotting technique offers.
Proteomic research is helping pharmaceutical companies in drug discovery research. Using 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) for protein expression profiling as the gold standard for differentiating between disease and control samples. Owing to these factors, the western blot market is expected to grow in the forecast period.
The global western blotting market, based on product is segmented into instruments and consumables. In 2018, the consumables segment held the largest share of the market, by product. The consumables segment of western blotting market is also expected to witness growth in its demand at a fastest CAGR of 5.6 % during 2019 to 2027. The instruments and consumbles are further divided into segments. The instrument segment is divided into imagers, gel electrophoresis instruments and blotting systems. Likewise, the consumbales segment is categorized as kits, reagents and others.
