概述
2023年全球抗菌添加劑市場規模達42億美元,預計2031年將達69億美元,2024-2031年預測期間CAGR為6.5%。
抗菌添加劑市場的成長是由對長期安全和新鮮的食品包裝的需求不斷成長所推動的。消費者越來越意識到使用含有抗菌添加劑的食品包裝的好處,因此對此類包裝的需求正在上升。
從 2022 年中期開始,美國加州大學柏克萊分校的研究小組正在嘗試進行一些早期實驗,以測試一種可以使瓷磚更耐黴菌的新物質。該物質將添加到瓷磚中使用的現有添加劑中,有助於它們在更長時間內保持不發黴,尤其是在乾燥時。我們的目標是找到一種方法來提高這些添加劑的性能,並使瓷磚更耐用、更能抵抗黴菌的生長。
動力學
對抗藥性微生物感染的日益關注
全球抗藥性感染的興起對抗菌添加劑的成長產生了直接影響。這是因為抗藥性感染的增加意味著傳統的管理和治療方法已經不再有效,因此需要使用抗菌添加劑等新方法。
統計顯示,許多國家的抗菌藥物抗藥性呈上升趨勢,光是美國每年就有近300萬人感染抗藥性細菌。這些感染每年也導致超過 35,000 人死亡,以應對針對抗藥性微生物使用抗菌添加劑的持續需求。
利用抗菌添加劑延長食品保存期限
食品包裝中使用抗菌添加劑的需求正在快速成長。微生物添加劑有助於延長保存期限、抑制微生物生長並防止食品腐敗。此外,他們還發現了多種形式,如液體、凝膠、粉末和氣溶膠。在食品包裝中使用抗菌添加劑的主要好處之一是延長食品的保存期限。
西班牙巴倫西亞大學的科學家們設計了用於活性食品包裝的三層 PLA-澱粉-PLA 薄膜。新的活性包裝方法可能會對食品業產生重大影響。 PLA 和澱粉在薄膜結構中的獨特組合可提供優於粉碎薄膜的許多優點,包括抗菌性能、延長保存期限以及比粉碎薄膜更有效
與抗菌添加劑處置相關的環境問題
抗菌添加劑的傾倒和整理給環境帶來了潛在的問題。抗菌添加劑處理的最重要問題之一是它們可能導致水污染。當這些化合物透過徑流或意外洩漏釋放到水源中時,可能會導致重要水生生物的死亡。它可能會導致食物網的破壞;生物體數量下降,甚至會導致嚴重的人類健康問題。
包括西北大學 Erica Hartmann 在內的二十多名科學家組成的小組對 COVID-19 大流行期間抗菌化學品的廣泛使用表示擔憂。這些化學品可能對環境產生不利影響,其使用量遠遠超出了所需水準。此外,這種危險的過度使用的長期影響尚不清楚。
Overview
Global Antimicrobial Additive market reached US$ 4.2 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 6.9 billion by 2031, growing with a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period 2024-2031.
The growth of the antimicrobial additive market is being driven by the increasing demand for food packaging that is both safe and fresh for extended periods of time. Consumers are becoming more aware of the benefits of using food packaging with antimicrobial additives and so the demand for such packaging is on the rise.
From mid-2022 onwards, a research team at University of California Berkeley, U.S., is working on trying out some early experiments to test a new substance that could make tiles more resistant to mold. The substance would be added to the existing additives used in the tiles and would help them stay mold-free for a longer time especially when they are drying. The goal is to find a way to improve the performance of these additives and make the tiles more durable and resistant to mold growth.
Dynamics
Growing Concern of Drug Resistance Microbial Infections
The rise of drug-resistant infections around the globe has had a direct impact on the growth of antimicrobial additives. It is because the increase in drug-resistant infections means that traditional methods of managing and treating them have become less effective and new methods, such as the use of antimicrobial additives, have become necessary.
Statistics show that antimicrobial resistance is on the rise in many countries, with almost 3 million people in U.S. alone contracting a drug-resistant infection every year. The infections are also associated with more than 35,000 deaths annually, to counter there is an ongoing demand for the use of antimicrobial additives for drug resistant microorganism.
Leveraging Antimicrobial Additives to Extend Food Shelf-Life
Demand for the use of antimicrobial additives in food packaging is rapidly growing. Microbial additives help to prolong shelf life, inhibit microbial growth and prevent food spoilage. Also, they found in many forms such as liquids, gels, powders and aerosols. One of the main benefits of using antimicrobial additives in food packaging is extending the shelf life of food.
The scientists at University in Valencia, Spain have designed triple-layer PLA-starch-PLA films for active food packaging use. New active packaging method could potentially have a major impact on the food industry. The unique combination of PLA and starch in the structure of the film can provide a number of advantages over pulverized films, include antimicrobial properties, extended shelf life and more effective than pulverized films
Environmental Problem Associated with Disposal of Antimicrobial Additives
The dumping and finishing of antimicrobial additives present a potential problem for the environmental. One of the most significant issues with the disposal of antimicrobial additives is that they can cause water contamination. When these compounds are released into water sources via runoff or accidental spills, they can cause the death of important aquatic life. It may lead to the destruction of food webs; population declines of organisms and can even cause serious human health issues.
A group of over twenty scientists, including Erica Hartmann from Northwestern University, have expressed concern regarding the widespread use of antimicrobial chemicals during the COVID-19 pandemic. The chemicals, which can have adverse impacts on the environment, are being used at levels far above what is necessary. Moreover, the long-term effects of this hazardous overuse are not yet known.
The global antimicrobial additive market is segmented based on type, application, end-user and region.
Revolutionizing Paints & Coatings with Antimicrobial Additives
The use of antimicrobial additives in the healthcare sector has become increasingly popular. Most commonly used antimicrobial additives in the healthcare sector include silver nanoparticles, iodine and quaternary ammonium compounds. Scientists are exploring the use of bacteriophage-based agents, which are viruses that can be used to target and destroy bacteria. Another area of research is focused on developing biopolymers with antimicrobial properties, which could be used to coat medical surfaces and reduce the risk of bacterial transmission. New technologies such as nano silver and nano copper are being explored in the healthcare sector, as they offer an effective and cost-efficient way to protect against microbial infections.
Scientists are drawing inspiration from the wings of dragonflies and cicadas to develop a distinctive coating specifically designed for surgical orthopedic implants. The coating, developed by researchers at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, U.S. combines flexible sensors with a nanostructured surface designed for antimicrobial activity.
Advancing Antimicrobial Innovations in Asia-Pacific
Governments in Asia-Pacific are implementing stricter food safety regulations, which has created a demand for more effective antimicrobial solutions. It has led to innovative developments in the antimicrobial compounds being produced and used in the region. Scientists at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Mumbai, India have recently studied and reviewed the use of natural halloysite nanotubes as functional additives for active food packaging. The nanotubes have been found to have several properties that are beneficial for food packaging.
The region also has a long history of traditional medicine and a population that is increasingly open to the use of modern medicine. The region is characterized by rapid economic growth, increased investments in healthcare and pharmaceuticals and more support for research and innovation. It has led to a wide range of products available in the region, from traditional herbal medicines to modern pharmaceuticals. Moreover, countries such as India and China have large domestic markets and can be attractive destinations for manufacturers, which makes the region attractive for antimicrobial product investments.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the growth of the antimicrobial additives market. The pandemic has raised awareness about the need to protect people from illnesses and infections, thus driving demand for products containing antimicrobial additives. The need for improved hygiene protocols in the wake of the pandemic has resulted in higher demand for products containing antimicrobial additives
The industrial sector has seen an increased demand for antimicrobial additives due to the growing use of equipment and machinery in industrial production. It is due to the need to maintain hygiene and prevent the spread of illnesses and infections. The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed for the need for increased sanitization and disinfection of public spaces and homes, as access to clean spaces and protective wear became a major priority.
Russia experienced a notable reduction in the availability of certain antimicrobial additives including both low-cost and mid-priced options. The decrease can be attributed to the low profitability of production and the pricing regulations set by the state during public procurements. The situation was exacerbated by the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The market for a popular class of preservatives known as parabens has significantly decreased in Europe due to the conflict. In United States, prices of these preservatives have skyrocketed due to decreased imports from Russia. Also, U.S, has imposed economic sanctions on Russia, making it difficult for companies to obtain certain types of antimicrobial additives from the west.
The major global players include BASF SE, Dow, Evonik Industries AG, Clariant, AkzoNobel, Lanxess, Elementis Specialties, Aekyung, Croda International, Solvay.
The global antimicrobial additive market report would provide approximately 53 tables, 50 figures and 184 Pages.
