New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/29/2014 -- In-vitro testing market is growing at a significant due to technological advancements in the field and increasing number of R&D procedures which require in-vitro testing. In-vitro toxicity refers to a process of analyzing the effects of toxic chemical substances in mammalian or bacterial cells. In-vitro toxicity testing is done to study about the potential of hazardous substances. In addition, in-vitro toxicity is also done to study for the availabity of certain toxic properties in useful substances such as food additives, agricultural chemicals and therapeutic drugs. In-vitro toxicity testing market is growing at a significant rate due to growing awareness and increasing R&D for detecting toxicity at early stages. The global market for in-vitro toxicity testing can be segmented on the basis of industry, methods used, applications and technology. On the basis of industry, the global in-vitro toxicity testing market can be segmented into pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, cosmetics, chemicals and food. Of these, pharmaceutical industry dominates the market whereas cosmetic industry has the fastest growing in-vitro toxicity testing market. Growing bent towards detecting the toxicity during initial stages of production is driving the in-vitro toxicity testing market in pharmaceutical sector. Whereas, support from regulatory authorities for using in-vitro and in-silico methods for studying toxicity of a substance is driving the in-vitro toxicity testing market in cosmetic industry. On the basis of methods, the global in-vitro toxicity testing market can be segmented into biochemical assays, cellular assays, in-silico and ex-vivo. Of these, cellular assays dominate the global in-vitro toxicity testing market. Cellular assays are used as bio markers. In addition, they are used to study about the biological properties of the potential drug compounds.
