The Chromatography Syringes Market is projected to reach $317.27 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2024 to 2030. Chromatography Syringes are a critical component in chromatography used for ensuring high-precision measurement while transporting the sample between the storage vial and the instrument inlet. The selection of chromatography syringes depends on the injection valve type, sample properties, and injection volume.
The growth of this market is driven by factors such as the application of chromatography in drug discovery and development, the use of chromatography systems for food quality testing, technological advancements in chromatography, and growing R&D expenditure in the pharmaceutical and food & beverage industries. However, the shortage of trained & skilled laboratory technicians for handling syringes restrains the growth of this market.
Use of Chromatography Techniques in Drug Discovery and Development
Chromatography is a technique used for identifying and quantifying a drug, confirming the identity of a drug and its metabolites, bioanalysis of drugs in pre-clinical and clinical studies, monitoring the progress of a disease, and drug-protein binding studies. Chromatographic methods are also an excellent tool for analyzing bioactive compounds present in pharmaceutical preparations extracted from plant medicinal substances. Chromatography techniques like gas chromatography (GC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) have made it easier to identify a molecule with remedial properties for further research and analysis and fine-tune the medicine to launch it in the market.
Market players in the chromatography syringes market are collaborating with pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, and academic research institutes to improve the efficiency of drug discovery and development. For instance, in May 2022, Agilent Technologies Inc. (U.S.) collaborated with APC Ltd (Ireland), a company specializing in the design and process development solutions for innovative small and large molecule compounds, to combine the technologies of both companies to provide unique workflows for supporting automated process analysis by using liquid chromatography (LC).
The outbreak of COVID-19 increased the use of chromatography techniques to discover therapies and vaccines against the virus, leading to a surge in demand for chromatography syringes.

Growing Genomics and Proteomics Market
Chromatography techniques are used in genomic and proteomics studies for genetic testing, obtaining information on genetic alterations, and studying gene expression. In proteomics, liquid chromatography is used to provide high-resolution, high-speed, and high separation of macromolecules. For many years, mass spectrometry (MS) has been used widely in the field of genomics and proteomics, but recently this method has been coupled with liquid chromatography (LC) or gas chromatography (GC) to enhance the sensitivity and resolution of the proteins in a sample.
The availability of funding from private and government organizations to support genomics and proteomics studies is driving the market. For instance, in August 2020, the National Institute of Health (NIH), U.S. awarded funding of USD 10.6 million to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) to accelerate the research in proteomics studies. Thus, growing opportunities for genomics and proteomics studies are expected to drive the market’s growth.
Key Findings of the Chromatography Syringes Market Study:
The Liquid Chromatography Segment is Expected to Register the Highest CAGR Over the Forecast Period
Based on type, the liquid chromatography segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Liquid chromatography is predominantly used in commercial applications. Liquid chromatography offers high accuracy in the separation process, high resolution, and quick, automated, and simple data analysis, making it suitable for adoption in various application areas.
