Prepacked chromatography columns remain one of the critical devices in the biopharmaceutical industry for protein purification
Recently, large-scale, prepackaged chromatography columns for analytical testing have become available to commercial and clinical production, and they represent an emerging trend in the analytical market. For decades, analytical test columns were essentially single-use devices. As technology advanced, it became necessary to replace single-use column systems with more complex, durable, and cost-effective two-dimensional columns that could better withstand high temperatures and pressures. Now, instead of buying an expensive analytical chromatography system with expensive accessories, several companies are providing their customers with ready-to-use, customized, and semi-customizable analytical chromatography columns. The increasing demand for ready-to-use chromatography columns is driven by improved analytical efficiency, simplified laboratory operations, and streamlined laboratory cost management. As a result, several companies in the analytical market have experienced phenomena...
