Chromatography is a process that involves the separation of a mixture into its components, carried by a mobile phase through a stationary phase.The separation between the components takes place based on their interaction with the two phases. Preparative and process chromatography are two applications of chromatography used at different stages of downstream processing of products. The preparative and process chromatography market has been segmented based on type, product, chromatography type, and end user. The market is driven by factors like the wide applications of chromatography and rising R&D initiatives for novel therapeutics. However, the high costs of chromatography instruments could hamper the growth of thepreparative and process chromatography market.
COVID-19 Analysis
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, drug discovery and research efforts have intensified, adding pressure on the healthcare industry. Although the initial impact of the pandemic was negative due to its impact on supply chains and workforces, the increase in demand for novel therapeutics has overall positively impacted the demand of the preparative and process chromatography market.
The pandemic has also increased the collaboration rate among players and government initiatives to support the development of treatments and vaccines for COVID-19.The market is expected to show additional growth due to the increasing use of chromatography techniques in the R&D and production of drugs and vaccines. For instance, Immunoaffinity Chromatography (IAC), a type of process chromatography, is used to filter and purify vaccines.

Segment Overview
By Type
Process chromatography is a scalable Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) compliant manufacturing approach for producing biotherapeutics by separating biomolecules from feedstock or slurry. Biosimilars,gene therapies, bio-betters, vaccinations, and other molecules are processed and benefit from this purification method. It is a cost-effective and efficient purification method that allows for high purity and yield. Furthermore, process chromatography can be modified tomeet the customer needs such as automation, scalability, and availabilityin single and batch modes, further increasing demand for the segment.
Process chromatography held the largest share in the market in 2020 due to its wide applications in product purification and process scale-up capabilities for large-scale product manufacturing purposes.
Preparative or purification chromatography is described as the process of isolating a chemical in sufficient amount and purity for additional tests or procedures employing chromatography.The use of preparative methods for the purification of highly valuable substances and APIs has acquired widespread popularity, with major drivers being increased throughput, cost-effectiveness, and purity. These methods provide users with enough material volume at the appropriate quality to begin clinical and preclinical studies at purity levels of 95% or higher. These methods are known to be highly precise and give accurate results.
By Product
Chemicals and reagents play a very important role in the preparative and process chromatography methods, as chemicals and reagents create the environment required to achieve the desired purification and results. Chemicals and reagents are used for various purposes in chromatography, including visualization of components, establishing polarity of the mobile phase, adjusting pH, system cleaning, and calibration.
Chromatography resins are major components of chromatographic techniques. They aid in the isolation of the target components from the mixture sample. Additionally, resins have a variety of end uses in different types of chromatography, including size exclusion, affinity, hydrophobic interaction, ionexchange, and multi-mode chromatography techniques. Furthermore, they are utilized in different industrial applications such as food testing, environmental testing, biomolecule separation, and diagnostic testing, which increases their demand.
Resins are further segmented into affinity resins, ion-exchange resins, size-exclusion resins, reversed-phase, protein A resins, hydrophobic interaction resins, and mixed-mode/multi-mode resins.
Preparative and process chromatography columns are the containers that hold the stationary phase and through which the mobile phase containing the mixture flows. The proper selection, packing, and validation of columns are essential for the proper purification of the analytes. New product launches in this segment are also driving growth for the segment. For instance, in March 2019, KNAUER WissenschaftlicheGeräte GmbH (Germany) had launched new protein purification liquid chromatography columns for efficient affinity, size-exclusion, and ion-exchange (IEX) chromatography.
Columns are further segmented into pre-packed columns and empty columns.The columns segment held the highest share in 2020 due to its dynamic use in different applications of chromatography and as itforms a crucial component for the majority of chromatography processes.
Chromatography systems are all-inclusive systems that possess all the equipment required for sample separationsoftware and are automated in nature.Chromatography systems provide several benefits such as automation, higher result accuracy, efficient data analysis, and faster turnaround times. However,they are generally more expensive and are mostly utilized by mid- and large-sized organizations.Different types of chromatography systems are available to cater to the needs of researchers and specific purposes.
Systems are further segmented into single-use batch chromatography systems, multi-use batch chromatography systems, continuous chromatography systems, and others.
By Chromatography Type
Liquid chromatography (LC) uses a solid stationary phase to separate molecules in a liquid mobile phase. Liquid chromatography is a technique that can be used for both analytical and preparative purposes. This segment is driven by new product launches made by the key players in the market. For instance, in February 2021, Thermo Fisher Scientific (US) launched its new Vanquish Online 2D-Liquid Chromatography (LC) system, which offers multidimensional chromatography. Â
The liquid chromatography segment has been sub-segmented into HPLC, flash chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography, size-exclusion chromatography, and affinity chromatography. This segment also held the largest market share in 2020, owing to its varied applications and high demandfor analytical processes.
Gas chromatography (GC) is a method for analyzing gas, liquid, and solid sample mixture containing the analyte. The major difference between LC and GC is that here the mobile phase is in the gaseous state called the carrier gas, while in LC, the mobile phase is a liquid. GC has several applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and forensics industries.
Other chromatography types include hydrophobic interaction chromatography, paper chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, and size-exclusion chromatography.
By End User
The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries segment held the highest market share in 2020 due to factors like increasing R&D activities and funding.
