The field of genomics has significantly positioned itself as a hotspot of academic scientific research and clinical medicine. Technological developments, such as precision medicine and next-generation sequencing (NGS), have encouraged significant advances in science and technology and simultaneously opened avenues for public healthcare. For precision medicine to prosper, genomic sequencing and long-read sequencing are of utmost importance, and since 2003 (after the completion of the Human Genome Project), genomic sequencing has attained great strides in terms of both cost and time.

The High-Performance Plastic Additives Market is projected to reach $2,839.3 million by 2031 from $1,045.3 million in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 9.6% during the forecast period 2022-2031.

The Disposable Protective Apparel Market is pegged at $2,410.4 million in 2021, and it is expected to grow with a CAGR of 6.1% and reach $4,358.0 million by 2031. The growth in the global disposable protective apparel market is expected to be driven by increasing government initiatives related to workplace safety. Based on product type, the gloves segment, which captures around 46% of the market as of 2021, is expected to lead the disposable protective apparel market.

The growing incidence and prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases generate high demand for novel therapeutics. Globally, around 8% of the population is affected by rare diseases. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the overall market of biopharmaceutical production. Manufacturers in different regions, along with local governments, are increasingly seeking new approaches to address the high demands for manufacturing existing and novel drugs and vaccines.

Gel documentation systems are used to image labeled protein samples and nucleic acid samples. Further, gel documentation systems are processed in a variety of configurations depending on throughput and sample type. Gel documentation systems measure labeled nucleic acid and protein in various types of media such as cellulose, agarose, or acrylamide. These systems come in a variety of configurations depending on sample type.

The scope of the global ophthalmic drug delivery devices market involves various drug delivery devices used in ophthalmic drug delivery. The considered devices include pre-filled syringes, multidose eye droppers, drug-eluting contact lenses, technology-enabled add-on devices, mist sprayers, squeeze dispensers, and other devices such as tubes and ocular inserts.

As per the National Cancer Institute, minimally invasive surgery is defined as, “surgery that is done using small incisions (cuts) and few stitches. During minimally invasive surgery, one or more small incisions may be made in the body. A laparoscope (thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing) is inserted through one opening to guide the surgery. Tiny surgical instruments are inserted through other openings to do the surgery.

Urgent care apps are smartphone applications intended to serve patients seeking urgent care by connecting them to a relevant specialist and facilitating further courses of action such as diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring. Treatment can be offered remotely via text/audio/video calls or help can be arranged to usher the patient to the nearest hospital.

The history of biomaterials dates from 4000 years when the ancient Egyptians used wires of linen to close the wound. In the Middle Ages, the Europeans used sutures made of catgut. Inca surgeons also used golden dishes to repair cranial fractures, and the ancient Maya used shells to create artificial teeth. In 200 AD, Europeans also produced artificial iron teeth. However, these materials were not completely compatible and organic with the human body.
Biomaterials Industry Overview

Although the compound microscope was invented in 1590 and was used for the examination of wounds and scars in the late 17th century, it had several limitations, including its heavy weight, large size, and poor image quality due to chromatic and spherical aberrations. Ernst Abbe proposed numerical aperture in the late 1800s, which substantially improved microscope resolution. Later, the monocular and binocular microscopes were combined with tripods and light sources and employed for a variety of examinations.
