Transfection is a process that involves production of genetically modified cells with the delivery of foreign nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) into the cell. There are two types of transfection technologies that include stable and transient. While stable transfection is permanent and the genes are continually expressed even after the host cell replicates, transient transfected genes are expressed for a limited period of time and are not integrated into the host genome. Increasing prevalence of cancer and growing obese population drives the global transfection technology market. In addition, initiatives taken by various government organizations also further accentuates the growth of this market.

Transfection technology market is segmented mainly by types of method and application. The method segment of the market is classified as reagent-based method, instrument-based method and virus-based method. The reagent-based method is further segmented as lipid mediated transfection (Lipofection), calcium phosphate, cationic polymers, DEAE-dextran, activated dendrimers and magnetic beads.

Reagent based transfection technology market is experiencing significant growth owing to cost effectiveness and less complicated methods involved during transfection. Likewise, instrument-based method includes electroporation, biolistic technology, microinjection and laserfection. Instrument-based methods are less time consuming and accurate; these advantages drive the growth of this segment.
