Biophotonics Market: Overview

Biophotonics is the combination of biological materials and light which integrates lasers, photonics, biotechnology and nanotechnology. Biophotonics is applied in dentistry and medicine for diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Biophotonics uses light beams and forms of energy to diagnose and monitor medical conditions. Biophotonics plays an important role in dentistry for the early detection of diseases.

Researchers have found that biophotonics procedure such as Raman spectroscopy, two-photon fluorescence spectroscopy, optical coherence tomography, one-photon fluorescence spectroscopy, and confocal reflection spectroscopy can help in identifying tumors at early phases, monitoring metabolic products & biomarkers, and examining eye fundus. The move is forecast to boost biophotonics market growth in the near future.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis  

The global Biophotonics market has witnessed a slight decline in the sales for short term to the lockdown enforcement placed by governments in order to contain COVID spreading. The restrictions imposed by various nations to contain COVID had stopped the production resulting in a disruption across the whole supply chain. However, the global markets are slowly opening to their full potential and theirs a surge in demand. The market would remain bullish in upcoming year.  The significant decrease in the global Biophotonics market size in 2020 is estimated on the basis of the COVID-19 outbreak and its negative impact on the economies and industries across the globe. Various scenarios have been analyzed on the basis of inputs from various secondary sources and the current data available about the situation.

Biophotonics Market: Growth Factors
