Bacterial Amylase Market

Global Bacterial Amylase Market Snapshot (2023 to 2033)

As per Future Market Insights, Demand for bacterial amylase-enriched products is likely to experience an upsurge, expected to register a CAGR of 3.6% from 2023 to 2033. By 2023-end, the market is expected to conclude at a valuation of US$ 320 million and will eventually reach US$ 455.74 million as of 2033. Bacterial amylase has high concentrations of alpha-amylase, along with a moderate amount of protease and hemicellulase, which are included in the water-dispersible blend of extracts found in bacillus subtilis.

Bacterial amylase is highly preferred among agriculturists, attributed to its longer shelf-life, typically up to one year, and offers greater temperature stability. This temperature stability makes it highly useful in the process of breaking down starch. All of the uses of the ingredients are found in supplements for feed which are used as enzymes to break down the food and ensure the nutrients in the feed are all absorbed. The highest degree of stability makes bacterial amylase useful in the agricultural and industrial world and more requested as the results show positivity in health and growth.

Amylases have a wide range of applications across a spectrum of industries, such as food, fermentation, and pharmaceuticals. In addition, demand is also expected to rise in the paper and pulp industry, especially for deinking of recovered wastepaper. Bacterial enzymes, along with those from fungi, can be used to de-ink office wastepaper via an enzymatic discharge of the ink particles from the fiber surface or hydrolysis of the ink carrier.

In the food & beverage industry, bacterial amylase is expected to find immense application in the production of alcoholic drinks, particularly during the fermentation process. While yeast is the primary fermentation source, all alcoholic beverages also contain other microbes, including bacteria, especially in spontaneous fermentation. The complex interactions between various microbes are leveraged during the production of wine, cider, beer, tequila, mescal, and cachaça.

Market players are also likely to capitalize on the ever-widening possibility of incorporating bacterial amylase in various pharmaceutical applications. Multi-ingredient medications incorporating amylase, cellulase, hyoscyamine, lipase, phenyltoloxamine, and protease systemic are used to formulate medications for treating functional gastric disorders and indigestion. Moreover, amylases are being considered an alternative to antibiotics, as consumers are abandoning the latter category amid documented and perceived negative impacts on the human body. Among all the negative aspects of antibiotics is resistance.

As per the World Health Organization (WHO), antibiotic resistance is rising to dangerously high levels in all parts of the world. New resistance mechanisms are emerging and spreading globally, threatening our ability to treat common infectious diseases. A growing list of infections such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, blood poisoning, gonorrhea, and foodborne diseases, are becoming harder, and sometimes impossible, to treat as antibiotics become less effective.

The last few decades have led to the emergence of various multidrug-resistant bacteria, prompting researchers to discover enzymes or proteins produced either inside the cell or bacteria itself can be used as an alternative to traditional antibiotics. Among various enzymes known to show therapeutic effects, the cell wall-degrading capacity of bacteriophage enzymes, lytic enzymes, and peptidoglycan hydrolase enzymes obtained from lysins and bacteria themselves are used as antibacterial agents.

The market for bacterial amylase is marked by the presence of notable players. Some prominent faces include Thermo Fischer Scientific Inc., Merck KGaA, Lonza AG, Sanofi SA, and GE Healthcare among others.

Amylase enzymes obtained from a wide variety of bacterial species are pursuing applications in various end-use industries, such as bakery and confectionary and alcoholic beverages, etc., which have increased bacterial amylase requirement. Bacterial amylase gives most starch products hydrolysis and enhances the quality of feed and food products that support a range of businesses globally.

The upward pattern in the use of bacterial enzymes for catalytic processes is expected to accelerate the growth in demand for bacterial amylase in the industries for the large substrates. In addition, demand for bacterial amylase is expected to increase among the textiles and paper pulp industries.

Development in the livestock feed industry would increase demand for bacterial amylase. Innovative advances in the production of starter feeds and starchy feeds, such as corn grain, feed syrups, and so on, is anticipated to drive bacterial amylase adoption over the forecast period.

Growing Consumption of Amylase in Beverages to Boost the Bacterial Amylase Market Growth

Enzymes perform numerous functions in beverages. They can help increase yields, form nutrients for fermentation, promote processing and change the finished product's colour, flavor and clarity. Thus, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage development requires enzymes such as bacterial amylase.

Alpha-amylases play a prominent part in the beer and other alcoholic drinks. In these products alpha-amylases have three key functions: sugar formation to be used during fermentation; viscosity control; and chill-proofing in beer. In addition, the primary applicability of amylases in the sugar industry is the formation of high-fructose corn syrups which are used as sweeteners for soft drinks in huge quantities in the beverage industry.

The production of advanced processing technique for fruit juice and the acceptance of packaged fruit juices would boost demand for the bacterial amylase market.

Rising Demand for Nutritious Animal Feed to Fuel the Demand for Bacterial Amylase

The rise in production of industrial livestock is the main factor driving demand on the bacterial amylase market. Increasing meat consumption fueled by health-conscious consumers has propelled industrial livestock production levels. This has generated a need for additives that are nutritious and promotes animal health.

Animal feed is produced on a large scale for improving farm animal diets. This in turn improves the diets of eggs, milk, and meat products. Bacterial amylase is gaining reputation in the preparation of animal feed as it plays an important role in uplifting digestibility, improving texture, taste and improve animal performance.

Bacterial amylase also plays a key role in enhancing animal health and efficiency, thus providing a significant boost to future growth for the animal feed industry. Whereas investment in research and development (R&D) to improve food fortification processes is predicted in the coming years to open up various opportunities for growth in the bacterial amylase market.
