Automated Sample Storage Systems Market Size, Share and Global Trend, By Product Type (System Units, Reagents & Consumables), By Capacity (Less than 100k, 100k-500k, 500k-2 Million, More Than 2 Million), By Application (Biological Sample, Chemical Compound Sample, Others), By End User(Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Companies, Academic & Research Institutions, Private Biobanks, Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

The automated sample storage system is a computer handled storage device used for storing and preservation of biological samples and chemical compounds, which are utilized in a multitude of functions in various industries such as chemical, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and others. Every laboratory, industrial unit or research institution requires sample storage and manual storage, which often results in haphazard storing of samples and overcrowding, leading to the degradation & misplacement of samples.

Automated sample storage systems thus offer efficient facilitation for storing and retrieval of samples, whenever it is required. There are several factors contributing to the considerable and rapid growth of the global automated sample storage systems. For instance, the American Cancer Society estimated that in 2018, there would be 1,735,350 new cancer cases diagnosed and 609,640 cancer deaths in the U.S., which will lead to an increased need for research and development activities for drugs and associated therapeutics. Automated sample storage systems would then be critical for the R&D initiatives for these therapeutics.
