Gas chromatography is an analytical technique used in analytical chemistry for analyzing and separating compounds that can vaporize without decomposition. It is typically used to separate the different components of a mixture or test the purity of a particular substance. The primary purpose of the gas chromatography technique is to separate the compounds that possess thermal stability, low molecular weights, and high volatility. Gas chromatography is the method of separating compounds in a mixture by injecting a liquid or gaseous sample into a mobile phase, typically called the carrier gas, and passing the gas through a stationary phase.
The Asia Pacific gas chromatography market reached USD 623.58 million in 2020 and is likely to reach USD 1208.68 million by the end of 2027 by registering a CAGR of 8.60% during the forecast periods 2020-2027. The major factors are the rising adoption of GC in various industries such as healthcare, oil & gas, food & beverage, agriculture, environmental agencies, forensic, academic institutes, research organizations, and clinical toxicology.
