Sales Analysis of Peptones (2017 to 2021) Vs. Market Outlook (2022 to 2032)

The global market for peptones expanded at a CAGR of 3.5% over the last five years (2017-2021).

Peptones are protein derivatives synthesized by partial hydrolysis, also known as protein hydrolysates. They are mostly preferred for bacterial growth in cell culture media optimization in mammalian as well as microbial cell culture processes. Peptones remain to be successfully used for improvement in the production of monoclonal antibodies, biosimilars, and vaccines.

Increasing global burden of chronic diseases associated with changes in lifestyles has been creating a huge demand for new biologics in the microbiology space. Demand for biologics has upheld the focus for microbiology study associated with cell culture media, attracting animal-free peptones that have been fast-tracking the production process of biologics to meet the global demand. Thus, growing focus on novel biologics production is foreseen to transform the biopharmaceutical industry over the coming years.

The global peptone market is predicted to rise at a CAGR rate of 4.1% and record a sales value of US$ 211.3 Mn by the end of 2032.

What Opportunities are on Offer for Peptone Manufacturers?

“Contract Manufacturing Surging in Asia Pacific Region”

Some of the leading biopharmaceutical players in the global market have adopted outsourcing models to expand their market footprint and generate a high rate of interest. Strategic long-term agreements and partnerships with local suppliers help manufacturers lower their operational costs.

Furthermore, peptone manufacturing companies can benefit from better pricing by outsourcing. Moreover, overall run-time, transportation, and logistical costs are reduced to a great extent.

Companies need to capitalize on their resources in Asia Pacific and enter into partnerships with local contract-based manufacturers for long-term sustainable market growth.

“Favorable Government Support for Accelerating Biopharmaceutical Industry Production”

Over the last few years, Asian and Middle Eastern & African government authorities have been encouraging multinational companies as well as start-ups to boost the industrial growth of the healthcare and biopharmaceutical industry. Major players in the biopharmaceutical space are focusing on capitalizing on their economies of scale to strengthen their position in the market.

For instance, developing countries in the Asia Pacific region, such as India, have announced new investment policies for attracting major companies as well as start-up companies across several domains, including the development of biopharmaceuticals using peptones.

Thus, favorable government policies in developing countries are expected to create huge opportunities for companies to invest in the peptone market.

How is Demand for Peptones being Adversely Affected?

“Risk of Virus Contamination During Cell Culture”

Several commercially-available peptones are used for different cell culture processes as growth supplements. Depending upon the type of cell culture, such as plant, animal, and microbial, different types of peptone supplements are used.

Peptones derived from animal sources or plant sources are used in cell culture optimization as a growth supplement. Some factors such as low quality of the product, lack of ultrafiltration, or mishandling of products in the sterilized area can cause contamination that can affect the quality of media.

In addition, animal-derived peptones possess a high risk of viral contamination during cell culture optimization, which is expected to restrain the growth of the global peptone market to some extent.

“Complexity in Regulatory Approvals for Distributing Services”

Complexity in the regulatory approval process is expected to hinder peptone production to some extent.

Every country has its regulatory authority and approval procedures, while several follow major countries’ authorized regulations such as the United States Food Drug and Administration (US FDA) and European Union (EU). In such circumstances, one supplier cannot present a new updated or improved product until all approvals of their peptones are acknowledged.

Companies need to wait until all regulatory approvals have been received before they begin the distribution of their products. The cost of distributing products in a fragmented manner is large enough that manufacturers need to wait for years to receive all regulatory approvals. Such a scenario is expected to hinder the growth of the peptone market.
