Greater accuracy, ease-of-use, and customer awareness
critical to improve product uptake, finds Frost &
Sullivan
SANTA CLARA, California,
Dec. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
Commercialized in 2012, the benchtop NMR spectrometers market is
expected to grow at double digit rate with focus on academics and
pharmaceuticals. The compact size of the instruments boosts higher
sales as lesser space is required to use them. As drug regulations
in the global pharmaceuticals industry become increasingly
stringent, molecular analysis spectrometers, including nuclear
magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers, are finding higher
application. Within the NMR market, the emergence of benchtop NMR
as a supplementary tool is expanding the scope of NMR's use beyond
pharmaceuticals, into academics, polymer research, reaction
monitoring, food, and other areas where it is not feasible to
deploy an expensive, high-field NMR.
Frost & Sullivan's new white paper, Benchtop NMR
Spectroscopy Market Analysis, highlights the key benefits of
benchtop NMR. This research analyzes the position of Nanalysis in
the benchtop NMR spectroscopy market, and compares the key
strengths of its product with the products of top competitors.
Miniaturization is enabling NMR spectroscopy to find novel
applications for its compact benchtop, and this will be a
high-growth segment going forward.

Sujan Sami, Measurement &
Instrumentation Consultant at Frost & Sullivan explains
that Benchtop NMR Spectrometer's inherent benefits of
accessibility, compactness, connectivity, low maintenance
requirements, cost, portability, and field analysis option have
opened up expansion opportunities in numerous markets.
"There is also considerable research on ways to turn benchtop
NMR spectrometers into an analyzer for quantitative applications,"
said Sami. "For example, the benchtop NMR spectroscope can
determine the ratios of cannabinoids in cannabis oil faster, and
with more repeatability than conventional high-performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC) solutions."
"Further method development and validation, paired with
educating end users on the value proposition of benchtop NMR
spectrometers is expected to greatly increase the adoption of these
instruments," added Sean
Krakiwsky, President & CEO, Founder at Nanalysis
Corp. "Being a non-destructive testing mechanism, NMR
spectroscopy allows the recovery of an analyte after analysis, as
opposed to other commonly used methods. In order to overcome the
adoption barriers, it is critical for vendors to ensure better
accessibility, simple operation and maintenance, and better
awareness of the advantages of NMR spectroscopy over
high-performance liquid chromatography in some quantitative
applications."
The benchtop NMR market is expected to achieve double digit
growth, driven by its small form factor, superior accuracy, and
ease-of-use. The businesses that will be best positioned to make
the most of these growth opportunities will be the ones that:
- Offer Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled products. The future of
this market will be lab virtualization using automated sample
changes. IoT can support the sharing of cloud spectrum to help
implement differential mathematical analyses.
- Expand in the process industry as NMRs are becoming more
popular than other techniques like infrared or Raman spectroscopy.
The opportunities in this market will further increase with
automation.
- Partner with accessory manufacturers to deliver a holistic
approach and a one-shop-stop experience to customers.
- Explore opportunities created by synthetic start-ups and SMEs.
These companies either have overbooked high-field NMR spectrometer
facilities or no accessible high-field NMR instruments. They have
to purchase a high-field spectrometer or outsource their analysis
needs.
