Life Science

Live cell imaging has grown significantly as a key application of life science research. The ability to better understand cellular processes and dynamics through live imaging has opened the door to new discoveries and improved research and development of therapeutics and vaccines. Typically conducted in early-stage R&D, live cell imaging utilizes imaging technologies which allow…

Water is an irreplaceable resource for all life on earth, and in particular is vital to human health and the raising of crops and food. People use water not only to survive but also to create household and industrial products that improve human well-being. But above all, water is the major component of the earth’s…

The total market for analytical and life science instrumentation was over $63 billion in 2018. Although there are well over 1,000 companies representing this space, the top 20 comprise nearly two thirds of total sales. These top companies dominate the market through a variety of product offerings in chromatography, mass spectrometry, life science instrumentation, spectroscopy,…

The greater Asia Pacific region is home to a number of extremely diverse countries ranging from advanced technological hubs to emerging economies. Countries like Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, and Australia are already major players on the world stage in industries like pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, semiconductors, and mining. Elsewhere some of the fastest growing…

Microscopic techniques have revolutionized our understanding of the universe, both for the life sciences as well as for the basic understanding of matter and materials in the physical sciences and industry. While optical microscopy techniques provide a wealth of information, when researchers turn to smaller and smaller features, whether cellular components or cutting-edge electronics, only…

Purification and filtration are essential methods in almost every field of industry and research, but there are particular areas where demand is quite large. These separation methods are utilized by a wide range of important end-users, including bioprocessing, academic research, fine chemicals production, as well as water and wastewater treatment. Both process-scale and lab-scale purification…

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies represent a leap beyond traditional Sanger sequencing, revolutionizing molecular biology and genomics. NGS has disrupted multiple fields, significantly impacting genome characterization across various species and finding applications in clinical diagnostics, drug discovery and development, agriculture, and forensics. Kalorama Information’s latest report, Next-Generation Sequencing Market and Kalorama Survey of NGS Laboratories, provides…

Mass spectrometry generally exists at the frontier of analytical measurement capabilities, continually driving innovation and growth for sensitive quantitative and qualitative laboratory testing worldwide. As noted in SDi’s coverage of the technology in the 2019 Global Assessment Report, its growth in the marketplace is primarily being driven by demand from pharmaceuticals, foods, and environmental testing…

Customers in any market often contact customer service and technical support departments when issues with products arise. Customers in the life science space are no different and rely on prompt and effective customer service and technical support from life science suppliers.

Good support from life science suppliers is particularly important as customers rely on the…

Scientists were among the first to use the Internet to publish and share information and to communicate with each other. The suppliers of lab instruments and consumables were among the first to identify their customer’s digital behavior and respond with email marketing to direct them to the earliest online catalogs and e-commerce systems. This evolution…
