For example, the Government of Canada has undertaken various business development initiatives to help organizations such as NatrixSeparations, Inc. for the development of innovative products and methodologies in the gas chromatography industry. The introduction of single-use membrane-based chromatography products is driving the demand for gas chromatography (GC) products from large-scale pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Application of the gas chromatography (GC) techniques in the healthcare sector includes the development & testing of various drugs and biotechnology applications. Some of the common applications of gas chromatography (GC) in the pharmaceutical sector involve analytical research and development, quality assurance, quality control, and medicine formulations.

The gas chromatography (GC) market is broadly divided into three major types such as accessories & consumables, instruments, and reagents. The accessories and consumables are considered as one of the fastest-growing segments in the market with substantial revenue generation in the last couple of years. The growing popularity of the accessories and consumables segment is attributed to the constantly rising demand for gas chromatography (GC) accessories and their longer durability.

The accessories & consumables market segment is also divided into support fixtures, fittings & tubing, automatic sampler equipment, flow control accessories, and pressure regulator equipment. The column accessories or support fixture market sub-segment has witnessed substantial growth due to increasing adoption in the chromatography columns and various gas chromatography procedures including purification of proteins, biological medicine development for resin screening, development of prototype drug, desalting, and polishing.

Gas chromatography (GC), also called vapor-phase chromatography (VPC) or gas-liquid partition chromatography, is a kind of chromatography that is typically utilized for analyzing chemistry compounds to separate and isolate the chemical substances by vaporizing without decomposition. Frequent applications of gas chromatography include measuring the purity of a given substance and isolating the various components from a mixture. Gas chromatography also helps to determine a particular class of compound.

The gas chromatography (GC) industry is divided by region as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Africa. North America has shown major growth in recent years owing to the rise in the implementation of the latest technologies in the medicine & pharmaceutical sector, increase in venture capital funding and existence of well-established lab testing facilities in the region. Several developed European economies with promising financial & demographic landscapes and a growing focus towards chromatography-based research & studies are predicted to record comparatively higher CAGR in upcoming years.

Asia-Pacific region is predicted to hold a major market share in the gas chromatography (GC) market with massive growth in the forecast period. Countries such as India, China, and Japan are leading the Asia-Pacific market with the rising economic conditions, growing scope for chromatography-based research, and significant investment by leading industry players considering potential growth opportunities in the region.
