The market crossed the US$ 5.0 billion mark in 2022 and is expected to hit US$ 6.0 billion by 2030, recording a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period.
Increasing R&D investments in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry
Mass spectrometry plays a key role in the pharmaceutical industry, from the early stages of drug discovery to late-stage development and clinical trials. Thus, increasing funding in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry is expected to drive the growth of the market. The R&D expenditure of pharmaceutical companies has increased significantly over the last two decades. Research activities in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are driven by investments in key areas, such as biopharmaceuticals and personalized medicine. For Instance: According to the 2018 EU Industrial R&D Investment Scoreboard, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sector amounts to 18.9% of total global R&D expenditure. Thus, increasing funding in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry is expected to drive the growth of the mass spectrometry market. The hybrid mass spectrometry segment is expected to pace up with the advantages offered by hybrid mass spectrometers, such as rapid and high-resolution testing abilities with more accurate and precise results thereby, leading to its increased adoption.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a global healthcare crisis and widespread economic impact since January 2020. However, the global mass spectrometry market was impacted positively. There has been an inflated demand for multiple spectrometers from the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries due to the COVID-19 driving market. By September 2020, in India, researchers at the National Center for Disease Control (NCDC), and the Delhi-based Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology (IGIB) were able to find a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) with 95% sensitivity and 100% precision concerning RT-PCR using a mass spectrometer. Furthermore, in April 2020, UK diagnostics firm MAP Sciences announced the development of a rapid test for the COVID-19 virus. This technology uses multiple spectrometries to detect different proteins in COVID-19 and is intended to deliver test results within 30 minutes. These developments are expected to foster the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The pharmaceutical and Biotechnology segment showcases the high growth of the mass spectrometry market.
Based on application, pharmaceutical and biotechnology can be attributed to accounting highest market share during the analysis period.
