Clinical Mass Spectrometry Market
Clinical mass spectrometry plays a vital role in the drug discovery pipeline for development of personalized medicines. It is further used in live imaging of biological tissue samples for detection of biomarkers. Cost reduction and improved assay quality are the key factors driving the adoption of mass spectrometry technique. According to the American Association for Clinical Chemistry (AACC), the greater specificity of liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) enables the measuring of testosterone in the patients with low endogenous concentrations. This technique is more reliable than traditional immunoassays, especially in women and children. This has led to an early adoption of the most recent generation of instruments using an established technology in the laboratories.
Clinical diagnostic mass spectrometers have the potential to analyze limited range of samples such as biomarkers, proteins or drug molecules at once, and in
Some cases with low concentrations. Thus, these devices are a valuable tool in diagnostics and laboratory settings. Furthermore, it allows researchers to determine pharmacokinetic profiles of drugs that are administered in micro doses. The technology shift from traditional systems to high-resolution technologies such as Quadrupole-time of flight (Q-TOF) mass spectrometry and the demand for this spectrometry technique type is expected to grow rapidly owing to advantages such as accuracy, improved resolution, and sensitivity for clinical diagnostic applications.
Market Dynamics
Technological advancements and product launches by key players are expected to drive growth of the clinical mass spectrometry market. Advancements in technology include miniaturization of mass spectrometry instruments and increasing automation within spectrometric units to reduce human efforts and improve efficiency of the instrument. For instance, a fully automated analyzer launched by Thermo Fisher, in June 2017 that can be customized for compatibility with laboratory information systems.
