Global Electrochemical Sensors Market - 2022-2029

Global Electrochemical Sensors Market - 2022-2029

Market Overview

The global electrochemical sensors market has reached US$ XX million in 2021 and is expected to reach US$ XX million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period 2022-2029.

Electrochemical sensors are devices that couple a chemically selective layer to an electrochemical transducer to deliver details about the chemical composition of a solution in real-time. The chemical energy of the selective contact between the chemical species and the sensor is therefore converted into a signal that can be used analytically.

Depending on the electrical magnitude used for recognition event transduction, different families of electrochemical sensors can be identified: potentiometric, impedimetric, conductometric and voltammetric or amperometric. The sensors are utilized for different purposes, such as to track the change of conductance, impedance and other parameters.

Electrochemical sensors are commonly used to detect harmful gases at parts per million (ppm) levels and oxygen at the percent of volume levels. There are toxic gas sensors for various gases, including nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and others. The sensors function well in portable and fixed gas monitors to monitor dangerous gases and the percent of volume oxygen present.

Market Dynamics

Incorporating biosensors into various diagnostic medical devices drives the global electrochemical sensors market. However, short or limited shelf life is expected to impede the market.

The incorporation of biosensors into various diagnostic medical devices

The electrochemical biosensor is a common sensing device that converts biological processes into electrical signals. An electrode is a critical component in this sensor, serving as a stable foundation for biomolecule immobilization and electron flow. Synergic effects are enabled by boosting loading capacity and mass transit of reactants to obtain excellent analytical sensitivity performance, thanks to many nanomaterials with large surface areas.

Various electrochemistry-driven biosensing approaches for inexpensive and small analytical devices for on-site analysis have recently been introduced. The trend can be used to replace commercial lab instruments made by well-known in vitro diagnosis businesses that advertise great sensitivity and automation when measuring analytes.

Moreover, electrochemical biosensors are a new way to detect viral nucleic acids or antigens and they could help with the development of COVID-19 testing at the point of care. Using point-of-care-testing (POCT) procedures is advantageous since it allows for the instant assessment of a patient's negative/positive status at the testing site within minutes or one hour. Many POCT techniques could be effective in this situation.

For instance, in January 2022, researchers successfully constructed an electrochemical immunosensor to identify COVID-19 antibody indication spike protein quickly. Detecting and monitoring modest amounts of COVID-19 in the early stages of the disease could help to curb the current COVID-19 pandemic's asymptomatic spread.

Short or limited shelf life

An electrochemical sensor has a shorter shelf life of some months to a year, depending on the environment in which it is used and the gas to be detected. Low humidity and high temperatures can also cause the electrolyte in the sensors to dry out. The electrolyte is depleted by exposure to the target gas or cross-sensitivity gases. In addition, they are temperature sensitive. Hence the sensors are usually internally temperature adjusted. It is preferable to keep the sample temperature as constant as possible.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a market for improving current diagnostic procedures and developing new methods for confirming SARS-CoV-2 infection quickly, cost-effectively and user-friendly. The capacity of electrochemical sensors to convert fluctuations in powerful bioactive chemicals into electrical impulses has shown a lot of promise. The electrochemical identification system has a lot of potential for creating techniques like remote-controlled monitoring or on-site fast detection utilizing a mobile phone because of its high responsiveness and ease of processing.

Segment Analysis

Based on type, the global electrochemical sensors market is segmented into potentiometric, impedimetric, conductometric, voltammetric and others.

Potentiometric sensors assess the potential difference between two electrodes in the absence of current flow. At varying analyte concentrations, the sensors primarily detect the analyte concentration by monitoring the variation in the potential difference between reference electrodes and the working. Because of their simplicity, familiarity and low cost, potentiometric sensors have found the broadest practical application since the early 1930s. Further, potentiometric devices are divided into three categories: coated wire electrodes (CWES), ion-selective electrodes (IES) and field-effect transistors (FETs).

Moreover, the pH electrode, used for decades, is the most extensively used potentiometric device. Its success can be ascribed to several undeniable characteristics, including ease of use, speed, low cost, application to a wide concentration range and, most importantly, its extraordinarily high selectivity for hydrogen ions.

The work of various Brazilian research groups exemplifies recent advancements in the discipline. Kubota and colleagues published a review on analytical applications of conducting polymers in potentiometric sensors. It has been documented how to make a hydrogen ion-selective potentiometric electrode using a tri dodecyl amine ionophore dispersed in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) membrane or poly(1-aminoanthracene) sheets.

Geographical Analysis

The global electrochemical sensors market is segmented into North America, Europe, South America, Asia-Pacific, and Middle East & Africa based on geography.

North America is one of the world's significant markets for advanced research. Growing R&D efforts in biomedical, building automation, automotive and other end-users are driving the region's massive need. Further, the region is one of the world's leading marketplaces for modern electrical devices and control. Large-scale domestic production, technological progress in information technology and government initiatives toward disruptive technologies is expected to contribute to the market share.

Moreover, the region's market will gain even more from sustained light vehicle manufacturing and advancements in fuel efficiency and performance due to modern, high-cost universal exhaust gas oxygen sensors (UEGO). In addition, as the number of industrial explosions has increased in recent years, U.S. safety groups are attempting to enforce the standards more tightly, resulting in a rise in demand for electrochemical gas sensors for quality control and monitoring.

For instance, in September 2021, Scientists from U.S. collaborated with UK and created an antifouling nanocomposite-coated multiplexed electrochemical sensor platform that can detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA and virus-specific antibodies at the same time. The platform has demonstrated 100 percent accuracy in identifying viral RNA and anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies with IgG specificity.

Moreover, researchers in North America are developing innovative wearable platforms that can comfortably conform to the human body and effectively sample fluids such as sweat, tear, interstitial fluids and saliva for the electrochemical detection of biomarkers utilizing various sensing approaches amperometric enzymatic sensors and potentiometric ion-selective electrodes. With pioneering contributions from multiple leading groups, U.S. has played a crucial role in the bulk of cutting-edge wearable chemical sensor research.
