Microscopy instruments form a basic component of scientific research activities. With the growth of nanotechnology, there has been a continual need for the development of high magnification and high resolution microscopy instruments.

As of 2009, the Latin American region contributes to approximately 4.3% of the global microscopy instruments market. In Latin America, initiatives of government towards the development and promotion of nanotechnology research and growing interest of pharma and biotechnology companies towards expansion of their global clinical trials projects to the Latin American region are expected to be the primary drivers of this market during the forecasted period of 2010-2015.

On the basis of the mechanism of operation or functioning, the microscopy market can be segmented as optical microscopes, electron microscopes, and scanning probe microscopes. The optical microscopy segment represented the largest market share of the overall advanced microscopy instruments market in Latin America. However, this is the slowest growing market with an expected CAGR of 8.9% during 2010-2015.

The end-user market consists of academic research departments and universities, pharma and biotechnology companies, and other research institutions and laboratories. Within these, academic research holds the largest market share of approximately 69-70%.
