The global chromatography paper market size is expected to be USD 13 million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD 17.79 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.6% during the forecast period.

Chromatography paper is a paper used in the process of chromatography. It is also known as paper chromatography and is paper made of small pores that don’t stop the liquid from flowing. Chromatography is an analytical method used for separating colored substances and chemicals. This method is generally used as a teaching tool, replacing other chromatography methods such as thin-layer chromatography in the laboratory. It is a technique used to separate the solutes or components from a mixture based on the relative amounts of the solute scattered between a moving stream of the fluid, known as the mobile phase, and a contiguous stationary phase. 

Chromatography paper technique two-dimensional variant is a technique that has two solvents and rotates the paper in between at 90 degrees. This technique helps in separating complex compounds with similar polarity. It helps in testing the compound's purity and recognizing substances. It is a quick technique and requires a small quantity of solvent. The substances are distributed between the mobile and stationary phases. This technique is used in various sectors such as food production, diagnostics, biotechnology, genetic engineering, water analysis, pharmaceutical, and drug discovery.

COVID-19 Impact

"Researchers Using Product to Develop Antidotes for the Virus Increased Market Growth"

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with chromatography paper market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The spike in CAGR is attributable to the chromatography paper market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

COVID-19 outbreak had a significant effect on every industry except healthcare. The healthcare industry was not shut down during the pandemic as the COVID-19 patients needed treatment and appropriate medical prescriptions. The supply chain of every industry witnessed a setback, and the healthcare industry was no exception. The supply chain and transportation of the hospitals and other healthcare centers witnessed a disruption. The infection imposed the population to stay indoors, which had a severe impact on manufacturing, transportation, and other industries. Whereas the pandemic also had a positive impact on a few markets. The market experienced an increase as it was used by researchers to understand the COVID virus and to develop antidotes, vaccines, therapies, and diagnostic tools to cure the disease. The mass spectrometry coupled with liquid chromatography was used for quantifying remedesivir in the COVID-19 patient’s blood. Thus, the pandemic had a positive impact on chromatography paper market growth.
