Brazzein Market Outlook
Brazzein is a protein that obtained from the berry of the Pentadiplandra brazzeana Baillon, which is a West African plant. The sweetness level of the brazzein is more than that of sucrose by almost 4000 times. This poses as an opportunity for the food manufacturers as well as the consumers.
For the food manufacturers, the price of brazzein is almost equal to that of stevia but the quantity that is to be used is very less. This becomes advantageous for manufacturers. Also, the taste of brazzein is almost similar to sucrose as it is derived from a fruit. The consumers will also benefit from the use of brazzein as it is obtained from a natural source and does not have as many calories as that of sucrose.
Commercialization of Brazzein is Still an Ongoing Process
Commercialization of brazzein is an ongoing process for which the patent is not obtained. This has restricted the commercialization of brazzein. Also, many manufacturers are trying to obtain a process to manufacture brazzein on a large scale economically.
There are many methods for the extraction by using yeast, bacteria or inserting the gene producing brazzein into maize plant. However, are still pending for approval from various regulatory bodies. The approval for brazzein from regulatory bodies of the operating region is a necessity for the manufacturers.
The food and beverage manufacturers as well as the consumers are awaiting the approvals for brazzein and are expected to grow at a very high rate after its launch in the retail market. The brazzein manufacturers are already testing it out with the food and beverage industry players find out the taste if added to products.
