Automated liquid handling system (a class of devices that may include automated pipetting systems and microplate washers) dispense and sample liquids in test tubes or wells and are often integrated as automated injection modules at the front end of liquid chromatography systems. These critical labour-saving devices provide accurate sample preparation for high-throughput screening / sequencing (HTC), liquid or powder weighing, sample preparation, and many types of biological assays. These technologies can have integrated components to feed the samples into heating and cooling systems for thermal cycling or stirring systems, depending on the target application, or they can be physically built for easy integration with peripheral laboratory material. Liquid handlers with robotic arms allow the user to program devices to handle external lab material to extend system usage. Other desirable features include programs for controlling start / stop functions, choreographing the sequential steps required for chemical, biochemical tests and injection options. The growth of this market is mainly driven by factors such as rise in adoption of automated liquid handling technology in several sectors, industrial growth of the pharma-biotech sector and the increase in R&D expenditure by biopharmaceutical companies. The rise in research in life sciences, supported by a favourable financing scenario are key elements which are anticipated to provide ample of new growth opportunity for the market.
The growing need for faster turnaround times (TATs), higher throughput, less human error, and lower operating costs are key factors driving the adoption of automated liquid handlers. Liquid handlers are typically used in biochemical and chemical laboratories. Automated liquid handling robots help deliver samples and other liquids to labs. Liquid handlers use a software controller and an integrated system to customize handling procedures for large transfer volumes. Additionally, the rapid expansion of several clinical and preclinical studies around the world, particularly in the United States, has created a need for speed in sample analysis. Machines in clinical trials run continuously and require a lot of manpower to keep running smoothly. Moreover, the rapid spread of existing diseases and the discovery of new diseases increase the demand for early treatment and diagnosis. This is expected to drive the adoption rate of clinical diagnostics and the adoption of automated liquid handlers in several applications. On the other side, rapid urbanization in developing countries is expected to boost the growth of the market during the estimated time period.
The introduction of artificial intelligence into automated liquid handling to control the various steps of the procedure and to take advantage of the ability of the internet connection to interact remotely with handlers is expected to provide new growth opportunities for the market over the forecast period.
Despite the decrease in costs associated with sequencing technologies, there are still major obstacles in the human-led steps of this procedure. In clinical and research genomics laboratories, sample preparation is the obstacle to experimentation today, especially when it comes to high-throughput NGS. The steps of sample preparation in the research lab are quite long, repetitive and tedious. These factors are expected to restrain the growth of the market over the forecast period.
Automated liquid handling provide greater repeatability from one event to another. However, these systems are still prone to more errors as they are more complex and have many internal actions that need to work within specification. The strength of many systems is that their flexibility and control over many variables in the automated pipetting process means more opportunities for errors in the system. Likewise, if automated liquid handlers do not dispense the desired number of critical reagents, more and more invisible errors are likely to occur as the process progresses. These factors are expected to be major challenges for the market growth over the forecast period.
