Definition of Micromanipulator

A micromanipulator is an instrument of precision that creates dexterity to manipulate or handle objects/samples on the minutest level. These instruments are mounted on the microscope and play an important role in all the fields, where fine positioning and manipulation on submicron scale are desirable. The micromanipulator is designed to grasp and control instruments that are used in laboratory procedures, for instance, micropipettes, electrodes, and probes used in operations such as cell injection, and patch clamping amongst others, and performs mechanical adjustments. 

 

Micromanipulator Market Dynamics

Drivers: Increasing adoption of IVF

IVF and other ART methods have been undergoing steady progress and advancement in the last decades. IVF for the first time was carried out in 1978 following the birth of the world’s first known ‘test tube’ baby Louise Brown. This marked the beginning of modern ART – Antiretroviral Therapy. Since then, techniques and technologies have advanced much step up so that today, we now see higher success rates and better results for most couples facing the problems of infertility. Recent advancements in technologies and comprehension of the human reproductive system have boosted the chances of conception. These are such as better methods in growing embryos in the laboratory, genetic testing, and better ways of transferring embryos. PGT enables detection of the embryos for hereditary disorders before implantation and that is why the technique is significant. This has led to enhanced prospects of pregnancies and also decreased occurrence of some genetic disorders outcomes.
However, techniques like cryopreservation have therefore been developed to enhance the preservation of reproductive cells or embryos for any time in the future. This is especially helpful to those with medical conditions likely to cause harm to their fertility as is the case with chemotherapy. The approach to ART has changed from a one-size-fits-all model to one that takes into consideration factors including the age of the individual and his/her hormonal and genetic constitution. This personalized approach aims to increase the likelihood of success. ART services have become more widely available across the globe. This includes the growth of fertility clinics and the increasing acceptance and support for ART in various societies.

Challenges: High costs

Micromanipulators with advanced features, such as automated controls, computer integration, and precision engineering, often come with a high initial purchase price. These features are essential for high-throughput applications and research but significantly increase the equipment’s cost. Many micromanipulators are customized to meet specific research or industrial needs, adding to the overall cost. Such changes are usually additional investments which may comprise customizations for the application, connections with other programs, or extra controls. Machines used in precision measurements have to be calibrated periodically to deliver their best to the user. Such maintenance requires the services of a specialist, or the replacement of certain components, in both circumstances proved to be expensive.
Moreover, the need for periodic calibration to maintain precision adds to the ongoing expenses. Calibration is critical to ensure the micromanipulator’s accuracy. It often includes detailed procedures and, in some instances, specific calibration equipment, which can be very costly. Precision in calibration would be required here; especially for biomedical research applications, precision is a must. Again, operating the advanced micromanipulators instructed that using them needs the corresponding practical knowledge. Training the company’s employees to maintain and use these systems can also be very costly. This is the time, effort, and money invested for the training that has to be provided and the future time possibly necessary to address operational issues.
