BIOACTIVE PEPTIDE MARKET ANALYSIS

Bioactive peptides are amino acids combined together through a covalent bond. Bioactive peptides are extracted from various natural sources, such as soy, oat, and pulses (chickpea, beans, peas, and lentils) etc.  Thereby providing a variety of health benefits such as better cardiovascular, digestive, endocrine functioning, as well as the immune and nervous system. They are also used in protecting important contents of food and beverages, resulting in decreased oxidation and degradation of the products. Although these peptides are extracted from natural sources, some of them have been designed with the help of chemical synthesis.

Global bioactive peptide market is estimated to be valued at US$ 4,960.4 million in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period (2022-2030).

Increasing number of inorganic strategies such as product launch by key players in market is expected to drive growth of the global bioactive peptide market over the forecast period.

Increasing number of inorganic strategies such as product launch by market players is expected to boost the global bioactive peptide market growth over the forecast period. For instance, In November 2018, Nuritas Ltd., a biotechnology company, announced the commercial launch of Peptide which contained anti-inflammatory bioactive peptides. It was the first bioactive ingredient discovered and delivered through artificial intelligence.

Furthermore, in October 2020, Hofseth Biocare, a biotechnology company, announced the launch of ProGo bioactive peptides in the U.S., which helps maintain iron-rich blood, promotes energy utilization, supports red blood cell production, supports gastrointestinal and immune system health and assists in iron absorption from daily diet.

Global Bioactive Peptide Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

Since the COVID-19 virus outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to over 100 countries across the globe and the World Health Organization had declared it a public health emergency on January 30, 2020.

COVID-19 can affect the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting production and demand of drugs, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to nationwide lockdowns, several countries, such as China, India, Saudi Arabia, U.A.E., Egypt, and others, are facing problems with regards to the transportation of drugs from one place to another.

Increasing research and development by key players during the pandemic for the treatment of Covid-19 patients is expected to boost the bioactive peptide market growth. For instance, in April 2020, APEPTICO Forschung und Entwicklung GmbH, a biotechnology company, announced that it had signed, together with the solnatide consortium, the Grant Agreement with the European Commission to accelerate the process of making APEPTICO’s proprietary investigational medicinal product (IMP), Solnatide available for medical treatment of patients severely affected by the novel coronavirus 2019 (SARS-CoV-2) disease, COVID-19.

Thus, impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic had positive impact on the global bioactive peptide market during the pandemic.
