Apheresis Market - Applications (Plasmapheresis, Plateletpheresis,RBC/Erythrocytapheresis,Leukapheresis,Photopheresis), Procedures (Therapeutic & Donor Apheresis/Automated Blood Component Collection), Devices & Disposables - Forecasts To 2017

Apheresis is a process in which blood of a donor/patient is passed through a medical device, which separates one or more components of blood and returns the remaining with or without extracorporeal treatment or replacement of separated component.

Apheresis involves devices and disposables that leverage centrifugation and membrane separation/filtration technologies to separate blood components. Apheresis applications market studied in this report is segmented as plasmapheresis, plateletapheresis, erythrocytapheresis, leukapheresis, and other applications based on the various components collected in apheresis collection and therapeutic apheresis.

The apheresis market

is driven by the advantages of apheresis collection over the whole blood collection, huge demand for plasma in plasma fractionation and research for new applications of therapeutic apheresis. However, the cost of capital investment involved and the challenges in recruiting donors for apheresis collection are inhibiting the growth of this market. The global apheresis market was valued at $1,140.8 million in 2012 and is expected to reach $1,922.4 million by 2017 growing at a CAGR of 11.0% from 2012 to 2017. The application of therapeutic apheresis for pediatric treatment is an uncaptured market and represents a prospective opportunity in the future.
