Overview of the global nanoparticle tracking analyser (NTA) market
Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global nanoparticle tracking analyser (NTA) market to grow steadily at a CAGR of around 9% by 2021. One of the primary drivers for this market is the exponentially rising focus on focus on drug discovery and development. It has been observed that focus on drug discovery and development by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies has increased over the past few years. The rapid progression in NTA technologies has enabled pharmaceutical companies to mitigate formulation risks as rapidly and simply as possible. Consequently, NTA will be used as a robust tool for developing novel therapeutics that will target the challenging proteins. Also, with the increase in drug discovery, there will also be an indirect hike in the consumption of NTAs among end-users. This, in turn, will propel the growth of the global NTA market during the forecast period.
One of the latest trends gaining traction in this market is the rapid technological advances and increase in aid in the NTA market. Recently, NTAs have witnessed an extension of their applications, prompting the vendors in the market to improve their existing instrumentation and develop new products based on the changing needs of customers. Advances in the market have enabled manufacturers to improve their product offerings by improving their ability to evaluate particle size, concentration, zeta potential, and aggregation. These advances in the NTA technologies has enabled end-users to view the size and number of nanoparticles in liquid suspension and analyze nanoparticle population on an individual basis. With more parameters, users can obtain data about the relative intensity of light scattered and the nanoparticle concentration in order to view and study particles that are fluorescently labeled. These technological improvements in the NTA will, in turn, augment growth in the global NTA market in the coming years.
