Chemicals Sensors - Market Size, Market Share, Market Leaders, Demand Forecast, Sales, Company Profiles, Market Research, Industry Trends

US demand for chemical sensors will grow 8.5 percent per year through 2008. Gains will be driven by new uses for established sensors; falling prices for high performance and/or novel sensors; and by microfabricated innovations. Optical sensors and biosensors will grow the fastest. The large medical/diagnostic market will continue to offer the best opportunities.

This study analyzes the $2.8 billion US chemical sensor industry. It presents historical demand data (1993, 1998 and 2003) and forecasts to 2008 and 2013 by sensor product type (e.g., bio, electrochemical, optical, semiconductor, pellistor); by analyte (liquids and solids, gases); and by market (e.g., medical/diagnostic, industrial, environmental monitoring).

The study also examines the market environment, reviews technology, details industry structure and market share, and profiles 51 industry competitors including Roche, Johnson & Johnson, Bayer, Abbott Laboratories, NGK Spark Plug, Robert Bosch, AMETEK, Draeger Safety, Emerson, Horiba, Thermo Electron, and Zellweger.
