Market driver: rising cases of prostate cancer

There is an increase in the number of people with prostate cancer across the globe and is the second most common type of cancer among men. The treatment for this type of cancer normally requires the removal of the prostate gland. This can result in impaired sexual function and drop in fertility in at least half of the men who undergo this treatment. After the initial treatment, it is difficult for a man to retain the ability to father children through sexual intercourse.

According to Amber Chourasia, a lead analyst at Technavio for health and wellness research, "During the process of prostatectomy, the prostate and the nearby seminal vesicles are removed. Seminal vesicles can be defined as the two small structure that are located at the base of the bladder. Along with the prostate, they provide the semen that carries the sperm through the urethra towards the penis during ejaculation. The loss of semen after the surgery makes ejaculation impossible. Hence, the sperm physically cannot reach the woman's egg for fertilization."

Market challenge: risk of contamination of samples

The sperm sample can be infected with several microorganisms. Therefore, the use of cryopreserved germplasm for artificial insemination, IVF, and in other related new reproductive technologies is of significant value to health authorities. During the assisted reproductive treatments, cryostorage is the only state where large quantities of biological materials are stored together in a common liquid medium.
