Mass Spectrometry Market Analysis & Forecast

Mass spectrometry is a powerful tool commonly used in the analysis of a wide range of molecules in forensics, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and clinical research, among others. Advancements in mass spectroscopy made it possible to deliver rapid test results with high resolution. For instance, in December 2020, Thermo Fisher Scientific launched an Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) instrument. The newly launched Thermo Scientific Neoma multicollector ICP-MS (MC-ICP-MS) will help researchers conduct high-precision and reliable isotope ratio analysis across various research applications. Moreover, in September 2020, Thermo Fisher Scientific launched Tox Explorer Collection for Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) product line to achieve results easily and rapidly in toxicology assays. This technology will help researchers in clinical research toxicology, forensic toxicology, sports antidoping, and related laboratories to obtain reliable results. Many major players are operating in the mass spectrometry market, such as Thermo Fisher Scientific, PerkinElmer, Agilent Technologies, Waters Corporation, and Shimadzu Corporation. 

During the COVID-19 outbreak, there has been an upsurge in the demand for the development of vaccines. Tremendous development in virology research has resulted in the initiation of new R&D activities and the initiation of new research projects based on SARS-CoV-2. The usage of mass spectrometry has seen growth due to its usage in the study of viral structure of the COVID virus.

As mass spectrometry can be used to analyze complex protein structures as well as protein-protein interactions, various pharma and biotech companies involved in the COVID vaccine development and drug development have created huge growth opportunities for mass spectrometry instrument and consumables manufacturers as well as service providers. 

NMR Spectroscopy Market Analysis & Forecast

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy technique is generally used in research and quality control. It is used for determining the purity and content of a sample. Moreover, this technique can be used to determine the molecular structure of a sample. In NMR spectroscopy market, the High-field NMR spectroscopy segment led the global market in 2021 and accounted for a revenue share of more than 85%. The high-field NMR Spectroscopy has observed high adoption due to its high sensitivity and better resolution. The increasing strength of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has an immense impact on various fields, such as material science, structural biology, and imaging. For instance, in July 2021, Bruker announced that it received orders for its new Ascend Evo 1.0 GHz NMR magnet, which is a compact instrument for clinical research and structural biology applications in single-story laboratories.

The global NMR spectroscopy market is growing rapidly due to rising R&D activities in the biomedicine business. It has been observed that the major demand for high-field NMR spectroscopy is from research centres and universities. The technique is used in the analysis of interactions of macromolecules and their structural dynamics. Based on WHO’s report published in January 2022, about USD 35 billion in grants were offered for biomedical research. About 70.28% of these funds were invested in non-communicable diseases, while 24.42% of funds were invested in communicable, maternal, perinatal, and nutritional conditions.

Increased initiatives by universities and research centers for advancing the scope of diagnostics and biomedical research by integrating technologies are anticipated to support market growth throughout the projected timeframe. For instance, EU-sponsored TISuMR project was completed in December 2021, with an overall budget of USD 318.48 million. The project developed a technological platform, it combines NMR spectroscopy with cultured tissue in a lab-on-a-chip.

NMR spectroscopy is a mature and niche market with a limited number of players. However, it is considered to be an attractive opportunity for investors, including high barriers to entry and limited competition. The major companies such as Bruker and Thermo Fisher prefer mass markets with abilities to sell in bulk quantity. Similarly, NMR needs a specialized understanding of high-powered magnet technology, which restrains players to enter the market space

Near-infrared Spectroscopy Market Analysis & Forecast

In near-infrared spectroscopy market, the FT-NIR spectrometers segment dominated the global industry and accounted for the maximum share of more than 79% in 2021. Fourier Transform-based spectrometers were developed to overcome the limitations of dispersive NIR instrumentation. The product utilizes minimal time per sample for the analysis and measures every infrared frequency concurrently, instead of individually. Such product characteristics give a competitive advantage for analyzing NIR spectra of pharmaceuticals, polymers, and chemicals.

Dispersive near-infrared spectroscopy segment is anticipated to witness considerable growth over the forecast period owing to the increasing frequency of usage in the agriculture segment. The product has been predominantly used for grain and grain product measurement and employed monochromators to extract spectral information.

Key market players such as Bruker, PerkinElmer Inc., Oxford Instruments, and Brainbox Ltd. Among others have been continuously involved in the development of products, and exploring the new application areas for the NIR.
