Global Bioactive Materials Market Trends:
Bioengineering and tissue engineering are recent trends
Advancement in technology has led to the development of bioengineering and tissues engineering techniques. Moreover, ongoing development on novel drug delivery technologies have further boosted market growth. For instance, in January 2019, DSM Biomedical partnered with ProMed Pharma to leverage its biomedical biomaterials with ProMed’s micro molding and extrusion capabilities to create novel controlled-release drug implants and combination devices.
Porous-coated and fully or partially porous orthopedic implants gaining popularity
Porous-coated and fully porous orthopedic implants are becoming more popular in total ankle replacement surgery. This is mainly due to the improved osseointegration of these implants. Moreover, the use of this coating on the osseous interface of the implant increases the chances of survivorship. These coatings are made of shape memory material that expands once the implant is inserted into the bone. The interconnected networks of pores of the porous surface coats are infiltrated with bone promoting agents. Hence, advent of biomaterials will positively impact the market growth.
Global Bioactive Materials Market Restraints:
Regulatory approval is a major constraint for bioactive materials market
Regulatory approval of bioactive products is a major concern. Drugs, medical devices and biologics are all regulated by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States, to ensure efficacy and safety of any new medical product. Regulatory approvals of all the new medical products is a time consuming process and it is acting as a major challenges for the market.
Negative impact of the Covid-19 is hindering market growth
Due to the lockdown imposed worldwide in order to prevent spread of infection there was disturbance in supply chain and production of bioactive materials. Moreover, pandemic has also adversely affected the research and development in various field. However, the market will witness positive growth in the near future as economy is recovering and getting back to its feet.

*Definition: Bioactive materials are used in the pharmaceutical and medical industries. These materials are designed to interact with the physiological fluids in the human body. They act as a carrier for the transport of these fluids
Bioactive materials have many different uses, including tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, diagnostics, and wound repair. They can also have applications in cancer therapy and gene therapy. However, they also have limitations. For instance, they may be ineffective at wound healing. In order to improve these materials, there is a need to develop new bioactive materials and better understanding of mechanisms of their effectiveness. Many biomaterials are designed to exert a strong influence on the activity of a target cell or a tissue. For example, an implant that releases calcium ions, such as in calcium phosphate-based materials, can influence the behavior of a target cell or tissue. Another strategy is to use chemical anti-inflammatory agents that exert surface-modulated biological effects.
