Market Definition of North America Laboratory Hoods and Enclosure Market

Fume hoods are ventilated enclosures that remove hazardous chemical fumes, particulates, and volatile vapors from the laboratory, providing personnel protection and prevent them from inhalation or absorption of hazardous chemicals and from other health problems. The fume hood limits exposure to hazardous or noxious fumes, vapors, or dusts by safely removing these substances from the immediate working environment. It also serves to protect the sample from external environment. Biological safety cabinets (or biosafety cabinets) utilize HEPA filters to provide environmental, personnel and/or product protection. They capture the impure fumes and recirculate or exhaust filtered air to protect environment as well as personnel while doing sample preparation and experimentation. A ventilated enclosure is any site-fabricated chemical hood designed primarily for containing processes, such as scale-up or pilot plant equipment. Ventilated balance enclosures used in laboratories to weigh toxic particulates. These devices are installed with different specifications for face velocity than the standard laboratory chemical hood and are well suited for locating sensitive balances that might be disturbed if placed in a laboratory chemical hood.

North America Laboratory Hoods and Enclosure Market Dynamics

DRIVERS

RISE IN INFECTIOUS DISEASES WORLDWIDE

Increasing cases of infectious diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, especially in low-income countries. Infectious diseases affected by organisms, such as viruses, parasites, fungi, and bacteria, are directly or indirectly passed from one person to another.

Clinical laboratories utilize different methods to perform analysis through a range of tests and assays required for diagnosis and monitoring of infectious diseases.

Increasing infectious diseases enhance the demand for clinical laboratories. Clinical laboratories provide different types of services for diagnosis and treatment of patients due to infectious diseases, including blood count, immunology and allergy testing, and urinalysis among others.

Different strains of microorganisms cause infectious diseases. These are viruses, protozoa, fungi, and bacteria. All these organisms are microscopic in size. The cause of disease in humans is viruses and bacteria; parasite which causes malaria is an example of a protozoan.

Diseases that are related to the viruses are HIV/AIDS, Ebola, MERS; the clinical laboratory used Immunofluorescence technique to diagnose different types of viruses from the human body tissue. Laboratories play an important role in diagnosing infectious diseases by using infectious disease testing technique, transplant diagnostic testing, or any other kind of clinical test. Rising infectious diseases worldwide are leading to upsurge in the number of laboratories across the globe, which is driving the growth of the global laboratory hoods and enclosure market.

RISING THYROID CANCER DIAGNOSTIC TESTS

Advancements help in extending the scope of development of new methods for diagnosing diseases in the clinical laboratory. The research and development team is involved in producing more advanced innovations in the service to improve the clinical diagnostic methods. In the U.S., more than 4,000 different methods of diagnostic tests are available, and they are done nearby to 7,000 million times each year.

Technological advancements in clinical diagnostic methods have made diagnostic tests easier to use and more accurate and have led to more precise and more timely reports. They have also managed to the point of care tests, which enable faster decision-making by medical practitioners.

Advances in the laboratory will impact the infection control programs, which have been made primarily in three major areas: identifying and detecting various infectious disease pathogens, genotyping methods, and antibiotic susceptibility testing. Due to implementation of advanced clinical diagnostic methods, clinical laboratory are in greater capabilities to provide support in the infection control programs.

RESTRAINT

LACK OF SKILLED AND CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS

The requirement of skilled and certified professionals is a big restraint for clinical laboratories. laboratory hoods and enclosure demand is increased due to the high growth in the number of people aged 65 or older who need a routine diagnostic test for their health, but the less number of skilled professionals present in the laboratory center is hampering the growth of the market.

The method and laboratory procedure have advantages, but there are certain gaps in standardization, equalization, and knowledge. Technicians are facing technical training gaps related to problems to adopt advanced methods safely to perform procedures efficiently. There is a need for highly skilled professionals in the clinical laboratory for method development, validation, operation, and troubleshooting activities.

The laboratory is a dynamic component in today’s complex healthcare system, providing patients with essential information for the diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and management of their disease and health. The main factors that impact the shortages of skilled and certified professionals are changes in the practice of clinical laboratory science due to advancement in technology and the retirement of the aging skilled and certified professionals.

The requirement of trained staff is a big issue for clinical laboratories, due to which the lack of skilled and certified professionals acts as restraints for the growth of the global laboratory hoods and enclosure market.

OPPORTUNITY

EMERGENCE OF COVID-19

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered SARS-CoV-2. The people affected with COVID-19 virus experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment. But coronavirus (COVID-19) spread is expanding across the world from last few months and the number patient population is hugely boomed up.

As COVID-19 is an infectious disease, its spread is endless; moreover, there is no specific and approved treatment for the COVID-19. Owing to this, various health organizations and government bodies are approaching guidelines to control its spread as well as recommending treatment that is concentrating on managing symptoms or complications that is developed by the virus.

Owing to outbreak of COVID-19, the demand for laboratory hoods and enclosure is increasing due to escalating research activities for developing medicines and other biopharmaceuticals, which provide utmost safety from the chemical hazards as well as other Laboratory acquired infections (LAI) while performing experiments in the laboratory. Thus it is estimated that global laboratory hoods and enclosure market is anticipated to boom up in the forecast period.

CHALLENGE

EMERGING REGULATORY STANDARDS AND LAWS

A fume hood is a ventilated enclosure that usually vents separately from the building’s Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system and not recirculated into the building. Whenever working with toxic compounds or compounds with a boiling point below 120°C, fume hoods and enclosure should be used. They must be used when the materials used will exceed exposure limits in the laboratory. There are various regulatory standards and laws set by different organizations to provide permissible exposure limits in order to protect from laboratory hazards.

There are various government agencies that oversee biosafety at Western, such as the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). PHAC publishes the Canadian Biosafety Standard which replaced the laboratory Biosafety and Guidelines and the CFIA’s Containment Standards for Veterinary Facilities.

These guidelines while working in laboratory must be taken into consideration that are one of the most challenging tasks for the players. In addition, they restrict new players from entering the market as these guidelines take a good amount of capital, which is very difficult to maintain for mid and low level players, hampering the growth and acting as a challenge for global laboratory hoods and enclosure market.
