Specialty Enzymes Market Research, 2031
The global specialty enzymes market size was valued at $1.2 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $2.2 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2022 to 2031. Enzyme is a substance that acts as a catalyst in living organisms, regulating the rate at which chemical reactions proceed without itself being altered in the process. Biological processes that occur within all living organisms are chemical reactions, and most are regulated by enzymes. Without enzymes, many of these reactions would not take place at a perceptible rate. Enzymes catalyze all aspects of cell metabolism.
This includes digestion of food, in which large nutrient molecules (such as proteins, carbohydrates, and fats) are broken down into smaller molecules, conservation and transformation of chemical energy and construction of cellular macromolecules from smaller precursors. Many inherited human diseases, such as albinism and phenylketonuria, result from a deficiency of a particular enzyme. Enzymes also have valuable industrial and medical applications. Use of enzymes in medicine include killing disease-causing microorganisms, promoting wound healing, and diagnosing certain diseases.
Pharmaceutically important enzymes are an important component of the pharmaceutical market. They are broadly defined as prodrugs that target a specific biological reversible or irreversible reaction to treat a particular disease. Enzymes used for pharmaceutical applications include cysteine proteinases, asparaginase, streptokinase, urokinase, deoxyribonuclease I, hyaluronidase, and glucocerebrosidase. Immobilized enzymes are also used in the pharmaceutical industry.
The specialty enzymes market size is expected to witness moderate growth during the forecast period, owing to increase in prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. Furthermore, expansion of food industries drives the demand of specialty enzymes. The enzymes such as lipases, amylases, proteases, rennet, pectinases, invertases, cellulases, and glucose oxidase plays an important role in food processing industry. However, the complexities in biosimilars development may hinder the growth of market.
The specialty enzymes market share is segmented on the basis of application, source, type and region. Based on application market is classified into pharmaceuticals, biotechnology research & development and diagnostics. On the basis of source, the market is bifurcated into microorganisms, plants and animals. By type market is divided into carbohydrases, proteases, lipases, polymerases & nucleases and other enzymes. By region, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
Type Segment review
By type, the specialty enzymes market trends is divided into carbohydrases, proteases, lipases, polymerases & nucleases and other enzymes. Carbohydrases segment was the highest revenue contributor to the market. Owing to increase in consumption of dietary supplements and digestive enzymes.
The polymerase & nucleases segment is estimated to be the fastest growing segment during the specialty enzymes market forecast period. Gene therapy holds promise for treating a wide range of diseases, such as cancer, cystic fibrosis, heart disease, diabetes, hemophilia and AIDS. Thus, upsurge in prevalence of cancer propels the growth of this segment.
