U.K. spectrometry market size, by type, 2017 - 2028 (USD Million)

Spectrometry technology has emerged as one of the key technologies used in various analytical applications such as drug development procedures, proteomics, metabolomics, forensic analysis, and pharmaceutical analysis. The adoption of this technique across various stages of drug discovery processes has increased in recent years. For instance, researchers from the University of Surrey applied the MS technique to assist and accelerate the COVID-19 vaccine development.

Additionally, the development of new advanced technology for novel applications is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. For instance, a June 2020 study published that the MALDI MS imaging technique can be used to analyze quantitative, physical, or physiologic properties of tissues. Therefore, the technique can be used for cancer proteomics research, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of various cancers.

Type Insights

Molecular spectrometry dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 37.6% in 2020 owing to the wide application of this technique in life science industries and the commercial availability of technologically advanced products in this segment. For instance, PerkinElmer, Inc. offers an extensive range of instruments, accessories, consumables, and software and informatics in molecular spectroscopy. The company offers infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, and FT-IR microscopy and imaging systems under molecular spectroscopy.

Molecular spectroscopy has gained popularity and is an important tool in biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and forensic industries, due to innovation in infrared spectroscopy systems that increase efficiency and reduce the overall process cost. According to a June 2020 study, near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is been employed for analysis of body fluids, differentiate between normal and cancerous tissues, and various other bio-applications.

The Mass Spectrometry (MS) segment is anticipated to grow at a lucrative rate throughout the forecast period.MS is a powerful tool commonly used for the analysis of a wide range of molecules in forensic, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and clinical research. The advancements in the mass spectroscopy process have enabled the rapid delivery of test results with high resolution.

For instance, in December 2020, Thermo Fisher launched Neoma multi-collector ICP-MS; an Inductively Coupled Plasma MS (ICP-MS) instrument. This product is expected to help researchers perform reliable, and highly accurate isotope ratio analysis for multiple research applications.

Product Insights

The instrument segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 71.2% in 2020. The large share of the segment is attributed to the expanded application of spectrometry in biotechnology. Recently researchers identified 27 biomarkers with the help of MS to predict the severity of illness and to design therapy. Additionally, MS is also used for proteomic analysis for the characterization of adoptive cell therapies in cancer treatment such as CAR-T cell therapy. This is expected to contribute to a large share of the segment during the forecast period.

The increasing demand for spectrometers in various life science fields is expected to create a lucrative opportunity for the services provided by the companies in spectrometry. Furthermore, the continuous competitive environment amongst the private players is anticipated to fuel the growth of the services segment during the forecast period. Many prominent players such as Charles River Laboratories offer a wide variety of analytical services using the MS technique.

Application Insights

The pharmaceutical analysis application segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 35.5% in 2020 and is expected to witness the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. The pharmaceutical analysis consists of a series of processes for determination, identification, purification, and quantification of a substance, determination of the structure of chemical compounds, or separation of the components of a solution or mixture.

Some key players offer special instruments for pharmaceutical analysis application. For instance, Agilent Technologies, Inc. provides Raman pharmaceutical analysis systems - TRS100 quantitative pharmaceutical analysis system. The TRS100 system allows simple and fast whole content uniformity and polymorph screening for pharmaceutical finished-product testing and formulation development such as capsule, tablet, or other dosage forms.

In pharmaceutical industries, spectrometry technology is being used to quantify drugs for novel applications. For instance, Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) technology was used to quantify anti-COVID-19 drug remdesivir in patients and to determine its efficacy to treat disease.

End-use Insights

The government and academic institutions segment dominated the spectrometry market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 44.5% in 2020. Spectrometry techniques and associated products are being widely used in various research studies that are being conducted by government and academic institutes. Thus, an increasing number of research studies is expected to drive the market for spectrometry products.

Similarly, various academic institutes have dedicated MS research centers. For instance, Vanderbilt University, Tennesse, U.S. has the Mass Spectrometry Research Center (MSRC) that aims to offer expertise, instrumentation, and methodology to the students. The presence of such academic centers and institutes is expected to augment the market growth in the near future.

Global spectrometry market share, by end-use, 2020 (%)

The pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies’ end-use segment is expected to register the fastest growth rate from 2021 to 2028. The use of spectrometry techniques especially mass spectrometry in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry for drug discovery and development propels the segment growth. Thus, the growing demand for drug component analysis and biomolecule analysis is driving the segment.

Regional Insights

North America dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 46.7% in 2020. This can be attributed to the local presence of a significant number of key players, such as Thermo Fisher Scientific, Agilent Technologies, Waters Corporation, and others. Additionally, the presence of several organizations and associations operating in this region that take initiatives to create and spread awareness about new advanced spectrometry products and technology.

Additionally, an increase in R&D activities by prominent players for novel diseases is attributed to the major share of the region. Players such as Agilent Technologies, Inc., are continuously involved in extensive research and development to develop new resins for the isolation and purification of vaccines. Currently, the company is working on COVID-19 vaccine development and separation by using chromatography and mass spectrometry methods.
