Feb 1, 2008
Los Angeles, CA, February 2008 - Strategic Directions International, Inc. announces the publication of a Market Analysis and Perspectives (MAP) report Mass Spectrometry: Endless Choices for Ever Increasing Analytical Performance, Market Forecast: 2007-2012. This report profiles the entire mass spectrometry market in terms of product, industrial and regional demand, and provides in-depth information on and analysis of the competitive environment. The results of a worldwide end-user survey, conducted specifically for this report, are incorporated. Other information, such as installed base, historical demand, recent news, product offerings and company profiles are also included.
SDi has been following the mass spectrometry market for over 20 years through custom consulting services and published reports. The first report on mass spectrometry was produced in 1988. While this is the 10th report SDi has published on mass spectrometry or LC/MS, we have published dozens of reports on related markets, including HPLC, GC and life science instrumentation. SDis continuous involvement in, and analysis of, these dynamic markets provides us with the capability to characterize the global economic conditions, technological advancements, evolving applications, business developments and end-user preferences. Mass Spectrometry has developed over the course of more than a century from a very crude instrument intended for basic research applications into a more than $3 billion global market that consists of end-users in a vast array of industries and applications. The limited range of early technologies that dominated the market have grown to include an extremely diverse range of methods. Despite the immense size of the market, demand for mass spectrometry will continue to be strong well into the future thanks to continued innovation from instrument manufacturers in order to satisfy seemingly insatiable demand.
When the topic of mass spectrometry comes up, most scientists naturally first think of the pharmaceutical industry and wider life sciences industries, which are of course the largest markets for the technology. But what many do not realize is the extent to which mass spectrometry is applied in other markets. Hundreds of millions of dollars in demand for mass spectrometry also comes from areas as diverse as environmental testing, petroleum refining, security and the semiconductor & electronics industries.
With all the instrument configurations now available and the plethora of applications in which mass spectrometry is now used, the mass spectrometry market has allowed numerous competitors, large and small, to enter the market and establish themselves. This has made for a relatively complex competitive landscape, which this report will help to untangle.
The Mass Spectrometry report containing 371 pages of data and analysis and including 98 tables and 204 figures, is available in hardcopy for USD $5,995 and intranet PDF version (including one hardcopy) for $8,245.
