Membrane Chromatography Market: Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2020-2026

Description

Global Membrane Chromatography Market: Overview

Membrane chromatography is a bioseparation technology used to integrate liquid chromatography and membrane filtration into a single-stage operation. The advancements in membrane chemistry have facilitated novel membrane devices with improved mass transfer and high binding capacities. It has significantly lowered the downtime in bioprocessing costs owing to the reduced equipment costs, low buffer consumption, and disposable nature. This technology is used to capture or bind the large particles like virus vector & virus, hold cell protein impurity, and polishing steps to remove DNA. It is a quick and innovative technology utilized in the production of drugs and facilitates higher capturing productivity and efficiency as compared to other chromatography techniques. The isolation process of protein & enzymes, further purification, and several other biotechnology-related applications are efficiently carried by membrane chromatography.

Global Membrane Chromatography Market: Growth Factors

The biopharmaceutical sector is increasingly adopting disposable technologies such as disposable modules for chromatography. This has reduced the concern regarding hazardous environmental impact due to the solid plastic waste produced from their usage. Disposable membrane chromatography has highly reduced the demand for water load. The hydrodynamic benefit has reduced the total process time, energy consumption, and labor management. Hence these factors boost the growth of the global membrane chromatography market.

The growing benefits of innovative methods by membrane chromatography over other conventional methods are driving the growth of the global membrane chromatography market. Membrane chromatography is used and adopted only in niche applications like the elimination of dilute impurities like endotoxins, viruses, and DNA. Moreover, the method is highly used as a polishing step in commercial processes to generate monoclonal antibody therapeutics. In the biopharmaceutical sector, downstream processing is fully dependent on membrane chromatography technology. The increasing scrutiny regulation on cleaning validation of downstream purification process further bolsters the global membrane chromatography market. The growing investments in research and development of membrane chromatography further fuel the market growth globally.
