Excessive alcohol consumption leads to an increased risk of developing more than 200 diseases, including liver cirrhosis and some cancers. In US almost 30 people die every day due to driving under the influence (DUI) Also, high blood alcohol content was observed in~20% of fatally injured drivers in accidents in developed countries. The growing number of road accidents caused by drunken driving and drug abuse has increased the demand for breath analyzers, as these devices assist in monitoring the presence of different compounds and measuring the blood alcohol content in a breath sample.

How the Market Growth Will Impact In-terms of Revenue?

The Breath Analyzer Market is expected to reach USD 1,167 million by 2025 from USD 524 million in 2020, at a CAGR of 17.4% during the forecast period

The fuel cell segment is expected to account for the largest share of the breath analzyer market in 2020 

Based on technology, segmented into fuel cells, semiconductor oxidesensors, and other technologies (infrared spectroscopy and chemical crystals). In 2020, the fuel cellssegment accounted for the largest share of the global breath analyzers market. Fuel cells are the mostwidely used technology in breath analyzers. Fuel cell-based breath analyzers offer an extremely high levelof accuracy, sensitivity, and reliability. They are specifically tuned to detect alcohol and do not requiremultiple sensors. These analyzers are considered the gold standard of handheld alcohol testers for bothpersonal and professional use. 

Growth Opportunities: Technological Advancements;

The breath analyzers market is technology-driven and is projected to grow at a significant rate in the coming years.
