INTRODUCTION
STUDY OBJECTIVES
BCC’s goal in conducting this study is to provide an overview of the current and future characteristics of the global market for spectroscopy. The key objective is to present a comprehensive analysis of spectroscopy as an important tool for use in analytical methods, both now and in the future.
This report explores present and future trends within the spectroscopy market, which includes molecular, atomic, mass/hyphenated, and some other types of spectroscopies. These spectroscopies are further divided into various types, which are described in detail. The improvisation, setbacks and needs of the market are discussed in this report. The classifications and usage of these types of analytical methods are also portrayed.
The report aims to identify the factors driving the market during this period (2009 through 2012) and provides extensive analysis of the industry, current market trends, industry drivers, and challenges, in order to enable a better understanding of the market structure. A detailed analysis of spectroscopy industry structure has been conducted. Revenues are broken down for regions by type and end users. Sales figures are estimated for the five-year period from 2012 through 2017.
Applications for different types of spectroscopy methods are also discussed in the report. The report also covers significant patents and their allotments in each category.
REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY
After the economic downturn of 2009, the analytical instrumentation industry’s business appeared to start recovering in 2010, primarily due to the burgeoning requirements of the life sciences and pharmaceutical industries, substantial demands from the chemical and petrochemical industries, and growing environmental concerns. Therefore, extensive research in the field of spectroscopies has become necessary, since they play a major role in the analytical market.
R&D spending, along with increasing competition in terms of the sensitivity and performance of new technologies, are a few of the factors that are moving this industry into a different era. New advancements and new product launches have influenced the market to grow for the foreseeable future. This study looks at almost all of the systems affected by these factors.
Acquisition strategies and collaborations by companies are also covered in this report. This study also discusses the strength and weaknesses of each type/category/technology in light of new technologies, growing competition, and changing customer needs.
