INTRODUCTION
Over time, spectroscopy has emerged as an important analytical tool for accurate and rapid analysis of compounds. It finds applications in research activities in food, biotechnology, pharmaceutical and environmental industry. Spectroscopic instruments provide information on electronic and optical properties, chemical composition and crystallinity of compounds. There are several types of spectrometers, such as mass spectrometer, atomic absorption spectrometer, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Raman spectrometer, and X-Ray fluorescence (XRF), which can be used for various qualitative and quantitative analyses. Amongst various spectrometry platforms, mass spectrometry is the most popular technique owing to its high quantitative accuracy, which can be further combined with liquid chromatography (LC/MS) and gas chromatography (GC/MS) for better resolution. Having said that, there are several challenges associated with these conventional spectrometers, such as lack of automation, resulting in lesser reproducibility and sensitivity of the systems. Novel spectrometers, having demonstrated the potential to address a number of challenges associated with conventional spectrometers, have emerged as an appropriate solution. It is also worth highlighting that several advancements, such as miniaturization, portability to increase performance and throughput of the process, have been made in the instrumentation of novel spectrometers.
Around 30 companies are actively engaged in the manufacturing of novel spectrometry platforms that can be used for various analytical applications, quality control, structural biology, forensic investigations, material testing, and agriculture analysis. Further, various advanced technologies, such as new laser based system, have been introduced in the spectrometers to detect particular combination of compounds. Additionally, the field has witnessed several innovations in the data process, evolution in guidelines for processing of the instruments that are compliant with the regulatory standards, mainly based on data accuracy, speed of bioanalytical method and speed of the analysis. Moreover, in the last few years, stakeholders have undertaken several initiatives to augment their intellectual portfolio by filing 3000+ patents for latest technologies and products with advanced features. The growing popularity of novel spectrometry platforms is also evident from 60+ global events that have been organized in this field, since 2016. Given the rising interest of stakeholders towards technological advancements and growing adoption of novel spectrometers for various applications, we believe that the overall market for novel spectrometry platforms is anticipated to witness substantial growth in the coming years.
