The technological development in the sensor field directly affects product iteration, cost control and user experience of mobile medical care , and thus it is worthy of close attention of Internet medical entrepreneurs and investors. Especially in the field of wearable devices, it directly affects the acquisition capability of the data acquisition end.
According to a new report released by the world-renowned market research company PMR (Persistence Market Research), the global biosensor market will experience rapid growth in the next 6 years. The market value of this market in 2014 is 12.9 billion US dollars, which will reach 2020. The US$22.5 billion compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is 9.7%. Geographically, North America is the world's largest market for biosensors. It had a market capitalization of $5.7 billion in 2014 and is expected to reach $9.5 billion by 2020. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is 8.9% during the forecast period. The Asia Pacific region will be the fastest growing region due to the expanding medical insurance penetration rate, large population base and continuous upgrading of the health care system.
The research team of the Institute of Sensing Technology of the Gansu Academy of Sciences believes that in the future, sensors will be developed in five major directions: diversification of functions, miniaturization, intelligence and integration, and the development of three highs and one low and other technologies.
1) Functional diversification: Future biosensors will further involve various fields such as health care, disease diagnosis, food testing, environmental monitoring, and fermentation industry;
2) Miniaturization: As microelectromechanical system technology and nanotechnology continue to penetrate into the field of sensing technology, biosensors will tend to be miniaturized, and the emergence of various portable biosensors enables people to diagnose diseases at home in the market. Direct detection of food becomes possible;
3) Intelligentization and integration : In the future, biosensors and computers will be more closely integrated, and automated systems for detection will be realized. As chip technology enters the field of biosensors more and more, chip-based biochip systems will realize Integration and integration of the testing process;
4) Low cost, high sensitivity, high stability and long life : The continuous advancement of biosensor technology will inevitably require continuous reduction of product cost, improvement of sensitivity, stability and longevity. Improvements in these characteristics will also accelerate the marketization and commercialization of biosensors;
5) Biosensors will continue to be used in conjunction with other analytical techniques, such as flow injection techniques, chromatography, etc., to complement each other.
The following are the new biosensor technologies at home and abroad in 2014:
2014 domestic and international biosensor new technology events
November real-time detection of biosensors for sweat, (USA)
Electrozyme, a company focused on sweat data analysis founded by Joshua Windmiller and Jared Tangney, developed a wristband with a built-in biosensor that can be used with users. The surface of the skin makes contact and can read chemical information from its sweat, and then shows how the user's body reacts after strenuous exercise.
August glaucoma sensor for intraocular lenses (USA)
The research team at Stanford University has developed a glaucoma sensor for intraocular lenses. The sensor is connected to an external smartphone and work program and is attached to the body to measure fluid pressure in the eye. This is a way to test blindness caused by glaucoma.
New sensor for detecting blood sugar using saliva in July (USA)
Scientists at Brown University have developed a new sensor for people with diabetes that uses saliva instead of blood to detect blood sugar levels. The new sensor consists of a light source, a metal, and a body that is exposed to blood sugar. A special enzyme composition that changes color.
A sensor that helps the squid "see things" in the dark in June
John Caprio and colleagues developed a sensor that allows the squid to feel the "breathing" of their prey, helping the squid to hunt food in the dark, muddy water they call home.
Skin Biosensors for Monitoring the Health Status of Military Persons (USA)
The US military has developed a flat-shaped electronic chip skin "biosensor" embedded in a bandage designed to track the flow of substances in military sweat to monitor their health and improve their performance.
New sensor protein molecules are expected to reduce blood drug concentration monitoring costs (Switzerland)
Researchers at the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne have introduced a new type of light-emitting sensor protein that can quickly reveal the amount of drug in the patient's blood by changing the color of the light. This method is very simple and easy for the patient to operate.
New electrochemical sensor for detecting "clenbuterol" in May (China)
