This research study involved the extensive use of Secondary sources, directories, and databases were used extensively to identify and collect helpful information for this technical, market-oriented, and financial study of the global laser capture microdissection market. In-depth interviews were conducted with various primary respondents, including key industry participants, subject-matter experts (SMEs), C-level executives of key market players, and industry consultants, among other experts, to obtain and verify critical qualitative and quantitative information and to assess the market growth prospects. The global size of the laser capture microdissection market (estimated through various secondary research approaches) was then triangulated with inputs from primary research to arrive at the final market size.
Secondary Research
The secondary sources referred to for this research study include directories; databases such as Bloomberg Businessweek, Factiva, and Wall Street Journal; white papers; and clinicaltrial.gov, among others. Secondary sources also include corporate and regulatory filings (such as annual reports, SEC filings, investor presentations, and financial statements); business magazines and research journals; press releases; and trade, business, and professional associations. Secondary data was collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall size of the global laser capture microdissection market, which was validated through primary research. Some of the key secondary sources referred to for this study include, National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), Scientific Journals, World Bank, World Health Organization, Association of Clinical Research Organizations (ACRO), Association of International Contract Research Organizations (AICROS), Clinical and Contract Research Association (CCRA), American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS), Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA), Safety Pharmacology Society (SPS), Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after acquiring basic knowledge about the global laser capture microdissection market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand-side personnel (such as contract research organizations (specialists), academic medical researchers, scientists, and pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical company experts) and supply-side (such as CEOs, vice presidents, marketing and sales directors, technology and innovation directors, and related key executives from various companies and organizations operating in the market) across four major regions—North America, Europe, the Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World. Approximately 60% and 40% of primary interviews were conducted with supply-side and demand-side participants respectively. This preliminary data was collected through questionnaires, e-mails, online surveys, personal interviews, and telephonic interviews.

Market Definition
Laser capture microdissection (LCM) is a contact- and contamination-free method of isolating specific single cells or entire areas of tissues from a wide variety of samples using a focused laser beam. This technique preserves the original morphology of the dissected tissue sample. Materials obtained by laser capture microdissection can be used for downstream assays like gene microarrays, loss-of-heterozygosity analysis, mass spectrometry proteomics discovery, signal pathway profiling, western blotting, cDNA library generation, and DNA genotype.
Laser capture microdissection technique is majorly used in genetic analysis, molecular analysis, cell isolation, microarrays, and protein analysis.
