Technological Advancements in Breath Analyzers Fuel to South & Central America Breath Analyzer Market
Technological advancements in breath analyzers are based on the portability of devices and smart sensors offering multifaceted applications. Portable breath analyzer can provide positive results with accuracy and is also utilized for screening purposes. Additionally, the analyzer devices are available at an affordable, low cost for personal uses. Other advanced breath analyzer technology devices such as evidential breath testing devices are generally expensive and require regular maintenance, repair, and calibration. Also, advanced breath analyzers include fuel cell breath analyzers and infrared sensor devices. Fuel cell breath analyzers provide more accurate results than other breath analyzers. Also, these analyzers are available at mid to high prices for the affordability range of consumers. Manufacturers incorporate a slightly higher technology in the fuel cell breath analyzer to reduce false results and bring superior products to the market. The Super Safety Services company's "ALX1000" is one such example of a fuel cell type alcohol sensor breath analyzer. The product has an ignition interlock device installed in automobiles. After installation of ALX1000 in the car, the drivers must be tested for alcohol. Therefore, technological advancements in breath analyzers would drive the breath analyzer market growth in the coming years.South & Central America Breath Analyzer Market Overview
South & Central America covers Brazil, Argentina, and Rest of South & Central America. Brazil accounts largest market share in the South & Central America region and the same country will register high CAGR of 13.45% for the forecast period 2020-2030. In Brazil, the upsurge in alcohol consumption and alcohol-related accidents has led to the formulation of stringent government regulations to ensure the safety of the population. This, in turn, has increased the sales of breath analyzers. The alcoholic beverage industry has a significant impact on Brazil's economy and politics, representing ~3% of the country's GDP. Beer, which falls under the category of cold drinks (along with soft drinks and sports drinks), is taxed less than other alcoholic beverages. Brazil also faces challenges with underage consumption of alcohol, as many commercial establishments fail to check for identification. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), drunken driving has been linked to almost 10% of all road traffic fatalities in Brazil in 2022. With driving under the influence of alcohol and related accidents becoming a significant concern, the Supreme Court of Brazil announced that the law governing drunk driving is entirely constitutional in the country. Brazil's Supreme Court ruled that the societal benefits of allowing police to administer breathalyzer tests outweigh concerns regarding individual rights, making them lawfully enforceable in May 2022. Therefore, due to stringent government regulations, drunk driving and alcohol abuse have led to a rise in demand for portable breathalyzers. Additionally, a study titled, "Design and implementation of an electronic nose system for real-time detection of marijuana," published in February 2021, was carried out by researchers in Brazil to develop an electronic nose (e-nose) based on commercially available gas sensors to provide a nondestructive, rapid, low cost, and portable solution for in situ detection for marijuana samples. The proposed e-nose system achieved 100% sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in classifying the samples.South & Central America Breath Analyzer Market Segmentation
