In 2016, the global market for protein extracts from single-cell protein and other conventional sources was valued at USD 12,685.7 millions. The market growth can be attributed to the growing demand for low-fat food and feed with optimal amino acid composition.
Over the forecast period, there will be a rise in demand for products made from ethically sustainable production. Soy-derived products have the advantage of being positioned as a sustainable source for protein. However, R&D will be driven by a higher priority to the functional role rather than the nutritional role.
The industry is expected to grow with technological advancements in the production and use of proteins from single cells. This sector is likely to see growth as R&D in nutraceuticals will aid in the acceptance of personalized nutrition products. Numerous research papers have been published about the use of single-cell protein as well as protein from another microbial source.
In many countries, genetically modified yeast from bioethanol plants is used as cattle feed. These products are popular for animal feed and human consumption due to their single-cell protein (SCP) advantages. DuPont is involved in the genetic engineering yeast to produce long-chain omega-3 fat acids. This is vital for human health.
This market is characterized by a significant number of players involved in the production of Spirulina or Chlorella, which serves as a major source for revenue generation.
BlueBiotech Int GmbH, a micro-algal biotechnology firm, has been in operation for over ten years and produces large quantities of Spirulina, Chlorella, and other products.
Cyanotech Corporation, a world-renowned producer of Spirulina, has sales in the U.S.A and 30 other countries. Spirulina was also granted Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS), status by the U.S. FDA to be used as a food ingredient.
The companies also offer spirulina as a nutritional beverage. This drink contains live spirulina, which can be used as a nutritional supplement or probiotic. To gain an edge in the market, companies mask the taste of spirulina.
Multipurpose use of spirulina in nutraceuticals drives research interest by manufacturers in single-cell-derived products, which in turn boosts growth in this industry. These applications include alkaliser, antioxidant, B vitamin source and chlorophyll enhancer. Because it promises farmers a higher income than regular crops that require low investment, Spirulina is considered a low-income program with high returns.
Due to their high usage in animal feed and food, plant extracts made up the largest portion of 2016's revenue. This segment is expected to dominate in the future due to the availability of many methods for extracting plant proteins.
For the production of SCP, food grade substrates are used. However, other processes are in development to produce SCP from low-cost waste materials. These sources of waste materials include agricultural sources and the food & beverages processing industries. A significant portion of this market is also due to the availability of SCPs that are used as high-protein sources for animal feed. SCP extract is expected to continue growing throughout the forecast period due to continued developments.
Nutrinsic, which is a food and beverage nutrition company, created ProFloc in August 2014. This product can be used to replace any animal or vegetable source of nutrition in animal nutrition applications. It is a viable substitute for animal and plant-derived products.
Over the last years, Bacteria has been used extensively as SCPs. This usage rate is expected to increase during the forecast period. On a dry weight basis, bacterial SCP typically contains between 50 and 80% protein. The methionine content of bacterial SCP has been shown to be higher than that of algal and fungal proteins. This segment is witnessing continued development in production capabilities. This will, in turn, increase the production of bacteria-based SCPs.
In many areas of biotechnology, protein plays an important role, including cell cultivation, pharmacy, nutraceuticals and cosmetics. The major beneficiaries of the nutraceuticals-cosmetics industry are the companies that manufacture them. This is due to the large number of resources that are available within the nutraceuticals or cosmetics industry.
The fastest-growing drug category in the pharmaceutical industry is peptidide drugs. This is due to technological advancements that have dramatically accelerated protein production. Numerous studies have also been done to isolate protein from plants and determine their potential medicinal uses.
The largest share of 2016's revenue came from North America. Regional growth is being driven by the introduction of advanced biotechnology techniques and the presence of large firms in the region. U.S.-based firms like Nucelis, Cyanotech Corporation and KnipBio are responsible for the majority of the global SCPs market. These companies are well-known as major producers of SCP, and they have generated significant revenue through the sales of products like Spirulina (Cyanotech Corporation).
Asia Pacific will likely be the most lucrative region, as countries are working to increase their share of the global animal feed industry. Vietnam was ranked number 15 in the Asia-Pacific feed-producing country list with a 21% increase over the previous year. China remained the number one feed-producing nation with 187.20 millions metric tons. However, India, Pakistan, India and Vietnam also contributed significantly to the Asian market.
KnipBio; BlueBioTech Int. Marlow Foods Limited, Lallemand Inc. and GmbH are just a few of the key players in this market. Among the new players are Tangshan Top Biotechnology Co., Ltd. and XIAMEN HYFINE GELATIN CO., LTD.
To improve their market position as animal feed producers, companies are pursuing viable strategies such as facility expansions and strategic alliances. As part of its Asian market growth strategy, Nutreco opened a new East Java, Indonesia animal nutrition plant in September 2015. It also opened a Vietnam premix plant that year. Both expansions were made to increase the company's presence in this sector.
