Microbiology testing involves the detection of infectious microbial agents to determine the appropriate antibiotic and dosage. Antibiotic resistance is an increasing health concern globally and this application steers the necessity for rapid and automated clinical microbiology. Hospital acquired infections are other growing application in the market.

LIMS automates a part of the laboratory system and can be of great importance in integrating laboratory operations like sub-processes, consolidating the results of tests, and thus speeding up the whole process of laboratory operations. LIMS can save a considerable amount of time and improve the level of data access for all stakeholders of any given project. LIMS software manages and tracks samples during testing and automates the laboratory processes. It also produces high-quality data in less time in contrast to the traditional laboratory management system.

Laboratory glassware and plasticware products are a variety of equipment used by research and clinical laboratories across industries for scientific experiments. There are many types of glassware and plasticware products used in laboratories that are classified in terms of their uses and applications in the research process. The glassware products have been dominating the market for the last few decades but this trend is changing with the rising adoption of plasticware products. The glassware products were preferred by many end-users and were used because glass is transparent, thereby making the contents and the reactions clearly visible. However, because chemical substances and solvents need to be heated, cooled, and mixed, ordinary glass is not always adequate for laboratory work. For these reasons, the borosilicate glass is used instead of the ordinary glass. The other specifications of borosilicate are

Laboratory services are an important component of essential healthcare system in resource-limited countries. They play a critical role in disease control and surveillance. Laboratory services support effective healthcare by providing reliable, valid, and timely results. Proper functioning, good quality equipment, and uninterrupted supply of reagents and other lab consumables are essential for this. Lab consumables are used in research processes to measure, analyze, and verify unproven quantities, properties, and phenomena of an element or material.

The global laboratory analytical instruments market will grow steadily at a rate of 6.36% during the forecast period, primarily due to the increase in the expenditure on R&D globally, necessitating the use of laboratory analytical instruments in laboratories where research is carried out depending on the type of application. Also, Asia-Pacific (APAC), which is the fastest growing market for laboratory analytical instruments, is witnessing the quick growth of the healthcare and chemical industries, resulting in the high consumption of a wide range of market-related instruments. In addition, stringent government regulations regarding the use of quality products in the testing and manufacturing environment have also played a key role in the consistent growth of this market globally. The increase in the cost of laboratory analytical instruments is likely to be a major impediment in terms of sales. The high cost of some of the laboratory analytical instruments and the need for continuous maintenance are hampering the growth
