Membrane chromatography refers to a separation and purification technique in which functionalized membranes serve as the stationary phase for chromatographic separation. It separates target molecules based on interactions such as ion exchange, affinity, and hydrophobic interactions. The technology enables convective mass transfer, supporting high flow rates, short processing times, and efficient purification across biopharmaceutical downstream workflows.
This report covers membrane chromatography products used for separation and purification. These include capsules, cassettes & cartridges, syringe filters, filter plates, spin columns, membrane discs & sheets, and other consumables used across research, process development, and biopharmaceutical manufacturing.
