The 24-010SDI Core Molecular Spectroscopy Report provides an in-depth evaluation of UV/Vis, NIR, IR, and Raman spectroscopy from both a primary and secondary market analysis perspective. Each of the four molecular spectroscopy techniques has its own market brief and survey section. The content of this report is complementary to that of the SDi Global Assessment Report, which provides market information on the analytical and life science instrumentation industry.
The advantages and limitations of each core molecular spectroscopy technique are examined in detail through the secondary market analysis. The report includes market sizing for 2023, and forecasts through 2028 for each molecular spectroscopy technique. It features segmentations by region, sector, application, and area of use. It also describes the principles and competitive landscape for each of the four core molecular spectroscopy techniques. For example, UV/Vis spectroscopy measures light absorption in the ultraviolet and visible range, making it effective for concentration analysis. NIR spectroscopy analyzes molecular overtones in the near-infrared range, providing rapid, non-destructive material analysis. IR and Raman spectroscopy focus on molecular vibrations through different mechanisms. IR spectroscopy, which analyzes mid-infrared absorption, is essential for chemical fingerprinting in polymers, environmental testing, and quality control but is affected by water interference and complex sample analysis. Raman spectroscopy uses inelastic light scattering, to deliver high specificity with minimal sample preparation.
The primary analysis reveals the views of over 200 end users to an 80+ question survey. These end users work in three regions: North America, Europe, and Asia in the pharma/bio, industrial, applied, and academic end markets. The survey component of the report examines brand awareness, end user satisfaction, molecular spectroscopy purchasing plans, industry applications, offering a valuable resource for optimizing molecular analysis in research and industry.
