When to Transition from Batch to Multicolumn Chromatography

By Corey Burke | June 23, 2026

When to Transition from Batch to Multicolumn Chromatography In downstream purification, selecting the optimal separation strategy directly impacts process yield, purity, throughput, and overall operational expenditure (OpEx). For decades, single-column batch chromatography has been the traditional standard across laboratories and industrial process lines. However, as processing demands intensify and efficiency margins tighten, continuous and semi-continuous […]
