Widespread adoption of single use sensors to be observed in the coming years

Sensors, transmitters and controllers, sensor housings, cables and connectors, and buffers and standard reagents are the main product types in measurement technology for downstream processing. Of these, sensors are widely preferred over the other product types. Single use sensors find increasing application among end users such as biopharmaceutical companies, F&B organisations, biopharmaceutical contract manufacturing and research organisations, and academic and research institutes owing to their inherent properties such as ease of use and low risk of contamination during the changeover process.

Single use sensors are also finding wide adoption on a commercial scale owing to their beneficial properties. Companies engaged in the manufacturing of bioprocess sensors are working on diversification of their product offerings so as to be able to integrate different process development steps in the manufacturing process; for instance, the provision of single use systems with integrated process sensors. Equipment manufacturers are also expanding product knowledge by providing free testing samples and demonstrations in a bid to increase their market share in the global market.
