Increasing Usage of Lactoferrin In Infant Formula And Competitive Strategies To Open New Areas Of Applications

The global lactoferrin market is anticipated to rise to a valuation of USD 167.9 million by 2025. Lactoferrin is a compound belonging to the cytokine family. It acts as an initiator of the cellular response against tumors and infections. It is derived from the transferrin family, which are glycoproteins. Lactoferrin is found in extensive quantities in the milk of mammals. In the human body, it is also present in saliva, nasal secretions, and tears.

Lactoferrin is a multifunctional protein capable of deterring and preventing the growth of fungi, bacteria, viruses, and parasites. It functions by binding lipopolysaccharides with bacterial walls and thus, creating peroxides. It is useful in separating free iron in the human body and also in removing any agent that encourages bacterial activities. Owing to its ability, lactoferrin is widely used in the healthcare sector.

Companies in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors are capitalizing on the properties of lactoferrin to improve their offerings. For instance, development of shelf-stable multi-serving emulsion and powder can be difficult since probiotic strains need refrigeration once in liquid form. Thus, probiotics are generally available in the form of capsules or in yogurts. In order to increase the shelf-life of probiotics, Virun Nutrabiosciences launched a range of non-refrigerated probiotic single-serving emulsions and powders in November 2016. These powders and emulsions were developed by combining lactoferrin with probiotics.

The growing uptake of sports drinks, infant formula, and functional food can provide a fillip to the global lactoferrin market. Rising health consciousness and disposable income can also drive the market, finds Grand View Research Inc.

Companies have developed techniques that can be used to extract lactoferrin from raw skimmed milk that has high anti-inflammatory properties and low saturation. Moreover, variants such as spray dried products have been developed, which show less light scattering effect and superior solubility. Development of innovative techniques and products can allow the market to gain traction in coming years.

Asia Pacific is expected to command a substantial share in the global arena throughout the forecast period (2014 to 2025). The high birth rate and heightened health consciousness among the populace are likely to keep the demand for lactoferrin high in the region. Some of the key players in the market are Glanbia Nutritionals; Fonterra Co-Operative Group Ltd.; Vitalus Nutrition Inc.; Synlait Milk Ltd.; and Metagenics.
