Asia-Pacific Microscope Market

The Asia Pacific microscope market is expected to grow from US$ 4,896.63 million in 2022 to US$ 7,697.60 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2022 to 2028.

Development of Novel Microscopes to Boost the Asia Pacific Microscope Market

High resolution, live-cell imaging, and digitalization are a few technological advancements in the microscope field. A few new enhanced microscopes include expansion microscopes, scanning helium microscopes, multi-view microscopes, and integrated microscopy workflows. Significant advances have been made in the field of neuroscience. For instance, in December 2020, a group of researchers at the Center for Molecular Spectroscopy and Dynamics within the Institute of Basic Science (IBS) in Seoul made a breakthrough in deep-tissue optical imaging. They developed an enhanced optical microscope that can form an image through intact mouse skull and acquire a microscopic map of neural networks in the brain tissues without losing spatial resolution. Researchers named it a reflection matrix microscope, which combines the powers of hardware and computational adaptive optics. In addition, the digital microscope, including LED screen instead of an eyepiece, is gaining traction in the market. In February 2021, ZEISS launched ZEISS Visioner 1, an innovative digital microscope enabling all-in-one focus in real-time. So, growing development of novel microscopes is expected to drive the Asia Pacific microscope market.

Asia Pacific Microscope Market Overview

The Asia Pacific microscope market is segmented into Japan, China, India, South Korea, Australia, and the Rest of APAC. China dominated the market in 2022. With the growing advancements in microbiology and molecular science fields across China, the demand for high-end, super-resolution optical microscopes is also increasing as the country has become a large consumer of optical microscopes. However, high-end microscopes depend on imports, and the country had to import most of the core components for these powerful microscopes. Thus, the dependence on importing super-resolution optical microscopes and their key components is restricting the research in biological science in China. Although in December 2018, the project, "Development of Core Components and Systems of Super-Resolution Optical Microscopes," was completed at Suzhou Institute of Biomedical Engineering and Technology (SIBET), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and after five years of research, the SIBET scientists broke through the key technologies. In January 2019, scientists in China created super-resolution optical microscopes with a viewing range till 50nm, allowing scientists to observe subtle molecular processes within cells in real-time, potentially helping them develop new drugs. In addition, through the project implementation, SIBET has built a microscopic optical engineering platform, which will provide customized microscope equipment as per user’s needs. Additionally, the increasing usage of various microscopy techniques will support the market growth in the coming years. TEM has become a great analytical tool for materials science. Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (SICCAS) was among the first several institutions in China that started to use TEMs in materials research, and the main work was to provide structural analysis services for the research groups in the institute and minorly for exterior institutions or companies. All these factors are likely to contribute to the rise in the adoption of the microscope in the coming years.
