Feb 28 2015

Microscopes have enabled researchers to conduct in-depth academic and exploratory research. Increasing interest in life science areas such as nanoscience, and pharmacology and toxicology has created a need for advanced microscopes employing mediums much more penetrative than light i.e., electron, X-ray, etc.

This has enabled us to venture further in the range of nanoscales and deliver potential innovations in life science field. Moreover, the medical field has always had the requirement for optical microscopes — schools and academies have introduced microscopes to teenage students at elementary level. Increasing demand has led to the proliferation of microscopy devices that are now available in creative designs, with new technology and magnification power to attract research enthusiasts. However, even with the proliferation of microscopes in nearly every principle of research and testing, microscope sales have been affected by the recent economic downturns in Europe and the Middle East.
