Growing Market for Gas Chromatography Systems
According to a recent report, the global market for gas chromatography systems is expected to reach upwards of $1.2 billion by the year 2015.
According to a recent report, the global market for gas chromatography systems is expected to reach upwards of $1.2 billion by the year 2015.
The rapidly growing market is drawing increased demand from other emerging markets such as petroleum, petrochemical, fire and specialty chemical, natural gas, industrial gas and fuel cell industries and is also being summoned to address concerns on various environmental and food safety issues.
As with most markets, the global gas chromatography market plunged with the recession in 2008 and 2009, however the recent recovery of the global market has returned the gas chromatography industry to positive growth in 2010 and it is expected to rebound fully.
With Europe representing the largest market for gas chromatography systems, accounting for more than 30% of the share of the market worldwide, the United States trails closely behind in terms of sales of GC systems.
The main trends present in today’s growing GC market are better resolution and faster analysis, with new innovations and advancements emerging at a rapid pace including trends like systems that offer ease of performance, lower detection limits and enhanced reproducible quantitation.
AI and GenAI Applications to Help Optimize Purification and Yield of Antibodies From Plasma
October 31st 2024Deriving antibodies from plasma products involves several steps, typically starting from the collection of plasma and ending with the purification of the desired antibodies. These are: plasma collection; plasma pooling; fractionation; antibody purification; concentration and formulation; quality control; and packaging and storage. This process results in a purified antibody product that can be used for therapeutic purposes, diagnostic tests, or research. Each step is critical to ensure the safety, efficacy, and quality of the final product. Applications of AI/GenAI in many of these steps can significantly help in the optimization of purification and yield of the desired antibodies. Some specific use-cases are: selecting and optimizing plasma units for optimized plasma pooling; GenAI solution for enterprise search on internal knowledge portal; analysing and optimizing production batch profitability, inventory, yields; monitoring production batch key performance indicators for outlier identification; monitoring production equipment to predict maintenance events; and reducing quality control laboratory testing turnaround time.
