Electron microscopy is a technique facilitating the generation of high-resolution images for both biological and non-biological specimens. Sample preparation involves the extraction of an appropriate quantity of components, chemicals, or substances from a larger batch to ready them for further examination. Electron microscopy produces nanoscale images, enabling the detailed scrutiny of diverse samples, including ceramics, metals, alloys, semiconductors, biological specimens, among others.
The primary offerings in the field of electron microscopy and sample preparation encompass microscopes, software, and other related products. Microscopy is the scientific method of observing samples and objects through a microscope, revealing details not perceptible to the naked eye. These tools find applications across various domains, including semiconductors, life sciences, material sciences, and others. The end-users of electron microscopy and sample preparation products span industries, academic and research institutes, and other relevant sectors.

The electron microscopy and sample preparation market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.02 billion in 2024 to $3.31 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to scientific research advancements, life sciences research, medical diagnostics, academic and research investments, nanotechnology growth
The electron microscopy and sample preparation market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.01 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand in pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, increased research funding, digital pathology and histology, environmental and energy studies, biomedical applications. Major trends in the forecast period include cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-em), correlative microscopy, in situ sample preparation, 3d visualization techniques, miniaturization and portable systems.
The anticipated growth of the electron microscopy and sample preparation market is expected to be driven by the increasing incidences of chronic diseases. Chronic diseases, lasting three months or more, can be diagnosed and studied through electron microscopy and sample preparation, aiding in the identification and understanding of various chronic conditions. As an example, data from the National Library of Medicine in January 2023 projected a 99.5% increase in the number of people aged 50 and older with at least one chronic condition in the US, from 71.522 million in 2020 to 142.66 million by 2050. Thus, the growth of chronic diseases contributes to the expansion of the electron microscopy and sample preparation market.
The growing number of hospitals is expected to contribute to the growth of the electron microscopy and sample preparation market. Hospitals, as comprehensive healthcare facilities, are essential in providing medical services, including diagnosis, treatment, surgery, and emergency care. In hospitals, electron microscopy and sample preparation play a crucial role in enhancing diagnostics and research by offering high-resolution imaging for detailed examinations of cellular structures, pathogens, and tissues. This, in turn, improves precision in medical diagnosis and the development of therapeutic solutions. For instance, as of May 2023, the American Health Care Association reported 6,129 hospitals in the United States, reflecting a 0.591% increase from the previous year's count of 6,093 hospitals. Therefore, the rising number of hospitals contributes to the growth of the electron microscopy and sample preparation market.
Technological advancements represent a prominent trend gaining traction in the electron microscopy and sample preparation markets. Key players in these markets are actively embracing cutting-edge technologies to maintain their competitive positions. A notable example is JEOL Ltd., a Japan-based scientific equipment producer, which, in January 2022, introduced the JSM-IT510, its latest Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Featuring JEOL intelligent technology, the IT510 offers built-in automation for versatile analytical SEM applications, allowing smooth transitions between optical and SEM imaging, live EDS and 3D analysis, and automated functions from alignment to focus, resulting in sharp and clear images.
Major companies in the electron microscopy and sample preparation market are prioritizing technological advancements, such as advanced gallium, to enhance the precision and efficiency of sample analysis and imaging. Advanced gallium technology involves using gallium, particularly in the form of a focused ion beam (FIB), for high-precision material processing, imaging, and sample preparation. Gallium ions can etch, mill, and manipulate materials at the nanoscale, offering superior control compared to traditional methods. For example, in July 2024, TESCAN, a Europe-based manufacturing company, launched AMBER 2, the fourth generation of its gallium FIB-SEM platform. The TESCAN AMBER 2 represents a significant advancement in microscopy and materials science. As the next generation of gallium FIB-SEM technology, it integrates enhanced automation with sophisticated AI-driven capabilities, enabling researchers to perform complex sample preparations with unprecedented efficiency. The system's capability to operate overnight without user intervention maximizes productivity and ensures consistent results across various materials.
