According to the deep-dive market assessment study by Growth Plus Reports, the global microscopy market was valued at US$ 6.6 billion in 2020 and is expected to register a revenue CAGR of 5.2% to reach US$ 11.54 billion by 2031.
Microscopy Market Fundamentals
A microscope is an optical device that magnifies very minute objects, such as mineral samples or animal or plant cells, hundreds of times. Microscopes can be used to observe various materials, particles, nanoparticles, cells, or organelles. There are three types of microscopes, namely, optical microscope, electron microscope, and scanning microscope.
Modern-day microscopes have multiple lenses that help in the greater magnification of an image. Different microscopes are used for different purposes and might have single or multiple lenses with varied resolutions or magnifying power. For instance, an optical microscope is a simple microscope, consisting of a single lens, or compound, consisting of several optical components in line.
