The Global Chromatography Software Market size is expected to reach $1.6 billion by 2027, rising at a market growth of 9.7% CAGR during the forecast period. Chromatography is the procedure of segregating various components of a mixture based on the relative amounts of every component or solute distributed between a moving fluid stream, known as a contiguous stationary phase, and the mobile phase. The stationary phase could be either solid or liquid while the mobile phase could be either a liquid or a gas. In addition, chromatography procedures are widely utilized in numerous applications across different industries like biotechnology, pharmaceutical, food production, genetic engineering, diagnostics, and drug discovery & water analysis.
Moreover, this technique is one of the crucial biophysical techniques, which helps in the identification, separation, and purification of the various components of a mixture for qualitative and quantitative analysis. Through this technique, proteins are purified on the basis of their characteristics like total charge, size & shape, hydrophobic groups that exist on the surface, and binding capability with the stationary phase. For protein purification, column chromatography is the widely adopted technique.
The growth of the chromatography software market is surging due to the increasing adoption of chromatography software over traditional software. Along with that, the rising demand for chromatography techniques in numerous industry segments to segregate very complicated compounds is expected to propel the growth and demand for chromatography software in the market. Although, the high equipment cost attached to this chromatography software is estimated to hamper the growth of the market.
