An analytical standard is a compound of high purity and known concentration to be used as a calibration standard for a given assay. As the regulatory requirements are constantly becoming stricter which is increasing the pressure on product documentation and quality control for all the industries. Analytical standards finds application in various verticals including  food and beverage, forensics, veterinary, environmental and pharma, and life sciences. The analytical  standards employs in measuring  the purity and quality of the formulations, drugs, biomarkers to increase the precision of an analytical procedure and to calibrate various analytical equipment. There are stringent regulations in the pharmaceutical sector all across the globe by WHO as well as several government regulations by every country or region across the globe is one of the reasons for the growth of the analytical standard market.

Analytical Standards Market Outlook 

increase in industrialization, along with financial support extended by central agencies for pollution prevention and control, has been increasing environmental consciousness among industrialists will bring in a potential growth and development in the global analytical standard market. Also, the increasing demand of testing to maintain the optimum quality standards in food industry and rising  awareness of  locals towards the safety measures is also adding up in the major growth of the analytical standards market. For instance, In India, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) plans to invest about USD 72.3 million to support the food testing infrastructure across the country as the food industry in India was roughly 32% of the country’s total food market in 2017. However, The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the analytical standards market. The analytical instrumentation sector is facing challenges in the manufacturing and supply chain, such as delivering products to end users promptly and attending to an uneven demand for the products and services in this sector.


Analytical Standards Market COVID 19 Impact 

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected the analytical standards market. The market for analytical standards market is anticipated to be marginally affected due to the outbreak of COVID-19.The analytical instrumentation sector is facing challenges in the manufacturing and supply chain, such as delivering products to end-users promptly and attending to an uneven demand for the products and services in this sector. The pandemic has also impacted the operation of manufacturing companies. Moreover, manufacturing plants in a number of countries have been shut down to contain the spread of the virus. According to WHO data, there were 62.3 million confirmed COVID-19 cases and 1.4 million deaths globally, as of November 30, 2020. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the number of patient data globally has increased. With the COVID-19 pandemic, most countries, including the whole of Europe, the US, India, and Australia, among others, are following complete nationwide lockdowns. Companies are functioning with a limited workforce. Moreover, the turnaround time for the delivery of products and services is affected due to newer packaging protocols and lockdown measures imposed by countries. All these factors are negatively impacting the manufacturing and supply chain of analytical standards products
