Some of the most common applications of mass spectrometry (MS) in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries are drug discovery, pharmacokinetics, proteomics, and metabolomics. Clinical research laboratories, diagnostic centres and many other perform analytical tests on specimens in order to determine disease diagnoses and locate responsible microorganisms. Increasing use of mass spectrometry in the field of diagnostics and in healthcare facilities is growing rapidly leading towards market growth. MS is considered as an effective analytical tool with high specificity and sensitivity. MS has become popular as a method for handling clinical samples with complex matrices, such as tissues and biofluids. It offers high-quality quantitative analysis even at low concentrations. However, the precise sample preparation or purification techniques required for chromatography-based approaches demand a lot of time and labour, and the specialised equipment needed for high-performance analysis is expensive. The on-site clinical translation of MS is significantly hampered by technical barriers and the high cost of MS. The aforementioned elements may hinder the target market. Technological advancement in the clinical field using mass spectrometry like MS based devices for diagnostic tests as well as for the identification of biomarkers have been made. Also, the prevalence of modern medicine is increasing using the mass spectrometry method to develop precision medicine (PM), which investigates a patient's genotype and phenotype to establish individually tailored drug treatment. Such technological advancement in the field of clinical mass spectrometry can provide key players with opportunities to increase their respective product portfolio in order to secure a higher customer base, further boost the revenue growth prospects for this target market.
