Apheresis is a process wherein blood is collected and separated into different components, leveraging on centrifugation and membrane separation technology. The global market is 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% from 2012 to 2017.

The market studied in this report is segmented by procedure, application, technology, product type, and end-user. Based on the rationale of the apheresis procedure, the market is segmented as automated blood collection (donor) and therapeutic apheresis. Automated blood collection accounts for the largest share of the global market, by procedure, in 2012.

The application market is divided into plasmapheresis, plateletpheresis, erythrocytapheresis, leukapheresis and others, while technology market is classified as centrifugation & membrane separation/filtration in which the former leads the market in 2012. This share can be attributed to the use of centrifugation apheresis devices, mostly by blood banks for collection, and for therapeutics as well due to the advantages offered by centrifugation technology over membrane separation.

Centrifugation is used for the apheresis of any blood component whereas the use of membrane separation is limited to plasma exchange. The product types used in this market are majorly classified as devices and disposables.
