Molecular spectroscopy is identified as the subject of quantum physics that studies quantitative and qualitative characteristics of molecules through dispersion and interaction of electromagnetic radiations with various frequencies and energies. This procedure aids in producing an absorption pattern, or spectrum, in order to deduce compositional or structural information. On account of these properties, molecular spectroscopy is extensively employed in environmental testing, academic research, biotechnology, and food and beverage (F&B) assessments. At present, it is available in varying technology types, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Raman, ultraviolet (UV)-visible, mass, infrared and near-infrared spectroscopy.
The widespread adoption of molecular spectroscopy across various industrial verticals, such as food and beverage (F&B), biotechnology, and particularly the healthcare sector, for introducing several efficient and accurate hybrid imaging systems, such as computed tomography (CT) and positron emitted tomography (PET) devices, is primarily driving the market toward growth. Moreover, rapid technological advancements in molecular spectroscopy and their widespread adoption in the pharmaceutical industry to discover newer molecules are also supporting the market growth. As compared to analytical techniques, they offer easier sample preparation and better outcomes from one single spectrum. In line with this, the rising environmental consciousness amongst consumers, along with numerous favorable initiatives undertaken by the government of several countries to promote the employment of molecular spectroscopy for environmental screening, treating wastewater and evaluating polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) levels to inhibit the depletion of natural resources are acting as other growth-inducing factors. Additionally, the rising usage of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy technology for implementing quality control, assessing the content purity, and determining the molecular structure of organic compounds is contributing to the market growth. Other factors, such as rising food safety concerns, significant expansion of the biotechnology industry, and the increasing application of Raman spectroscopy for coronavirus disease (COVID-19) testing are positively stimulating the market growth across the globe.
