Global chiral chromatography columns market-Market Highlights

the global chiral chromatography columns market is expected to register a CAGR of ~4.8% during the forecast period of 2021 to 2027.

Enantiomers can be easily extracted by using chiral chromatography. Mainly performed on Chiral Stationary Phases (CSP), chiral chromatography provides an advantage over traditional separation techniques as it can be employed to separate a variety of chiral compounds. Chiral chromatography column is extensively used in normal-phase liquid chromatography, reversed-phase chromatography, Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) and other types of chromatography. They are usefulin understanding spatial orientation of enantiomers, analyzing retention level of chiral compounds in chromatographic system and separating stereoisomers in drug purification process.

The global chiral chromatography columns market is currently dominated by several market players. The key players are involved in geographic expansion, acquisition, and strategic collaborations to maintain their global footprint in the chiral chromatography columns market.For instance, in January 2019, Chiral Technologies, Inc. (US), a subsidiary of Daicel Corporation (Japan) acquired Arbor Biosciences (US). This acquisition diversified choral Technologies’ innovative and cost-effective solutions and services offering. Similarly, manufacturers and suppliers are extending their products and services offering to support the growth of chiral chromatography columns market. For instance, in February 2019, Showa Denko America, Inc.(US), a subsidiary of Showa Denko K. K. (Japan) launched a new application laboratory in New York City, US. This laboratory tests samples from customers to suggest best columns to be used for chromatography and helps in executing long-term projects. Increasing number of strategic decisions by manufacturers and optimum service offering from supplier side is anticipated to increase the lucrativeness of chiral chromatography columns market.
