The market is experiencing robust growth driven by the increasing demand for protein-rich food and beverages. A Gym Desk report reveals that 185 million people worldwide hold gym memberships and require a high-protein diet to support muscle building and weight loss goals. Proteins find diverse applications in biomedicine, including tissue engineering, drug delivery, and diagnostics. For example, proteins can be utilized to create new tissues or organs and deliver medications to specific cells or tissues, and these factors are among the key drivers propelling market growth.

The industry is expected to receive a significant boost from technological advancements in the production of single-cell-derived proteins. Innovations in personalized nutrition products are also poised to contribute to growth, particularly as research and development in nutraceuticals foster the acceptance of such products. Numerous research papers are now being published that utilize proteins obtained from single-cell sources and other microbial origins.

Genetically modified yeast sourced from bioethanol factories is already being used as cattle feed in various countries, owing to the advantages of single-cell protein (SCP). These SCP products are favored for both animal feed and human consumption. Companies like DuPont are actively engaged in yeast genetic engineering to produce long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for human health. The market witnesses substantial revenue generation from numerous players producing Spirulina and Chlorella.

For instance, BlueBiotech Int GmbH, a micro-algal biotechnology company with over two decades of operation, produces substantial quantities of Spirulina and Chlorella. Similarly, Cyanotech Corporation manufactures Spirulina with sales extending to the U.S. and 30 other countries. Furthermore, Spirulina has received Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) status from the U.S. FDA for its use as a food ingredient.

Companies are also exploring the introduction of Spirulina in the form of a nutritional drink, incorporating the live form of Spirulina to function as a probiotic rather than just a dietary supplement. Efforts are being made to mask Spirulina's taste to gain a competitive edge in the market.

The versatile applications of Spirulina as a multifunctional nutraceutical are driving manufacturers' research interest in single-cell-derived products, thus contributing to growth in this sector. These applications encompass antioxidants, sources of B vitamins, chlorophyll enhancers, and alkalizers. Spirulina production is seen as a low-investment, high-income opportunity for farmers, offering better returns compared to conventional crops with minimal investment.

The Global Protein Extracts From Single Cell Protein And Other Conventional Sources Market is segmented into source, application, regional distribution, and company.

Based on source, the plant protein extract source segment secured the highest revenue share in 2023. This was primarily due to the multitude of techniques available for extracting plant proteins, a trend expected to maintain its dominance in the foreseeable future.

The microbial sources segment, particularly emphasizing single-cell proteins, is positioned to achieve the highest Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) throughout the forecast period. Bacteria have historically been pivotal in the production of single-cell proteins, and this trend is expected to gain traction in the forthcoming years. Bacterial single-cell proteins typically boast protein content ranging from 50% to 80% on a dry weight basis. Notably, the methionine content in bacterial single-cell proteins exceeds that found in algal or fungal proteins. In the production of single-cell proteins intended for human consumption, food-grade substrates are commonly utilized, although ongoing developments are underway to explore alternative processes for single-cell protein production utilizing cost-effective waste materials.

Based on application, The biotechnology sector has emerged as the leader in terms of revenue market share. Biotechnology plays diverse roles in protein extraction, encompassing purification, identification, and characterization. Concrete instances of biotechnology application in protein extraction include utilizing recombinant DNA technology to produce proteins in bacterial or yeast cultures and employing liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for protein identification. Protein holds a pivotal position across multiple domains of biotechnology, including pharmaceuticals, cell cultivation, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics. Companies involved in the production of nutraceuticals and cosmetics notably benefit from these advancements, as diverse protein sources are extensively utilized within these industries.

Conversely, the animal feed sector is positioned to achieve the highest Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the projected period. Domestic animals remain essential contributors to the global food supply chain, elevating the significance of animal feeds as a vital component. Approximately 30% of the global agricultural value and 19% of food production value are attributed to animal products, which also provide 34% of the protein and 16% of the calories in human diets. Ensuring a consistent, cost-effective, and safe supply of animal feeds is paramount to meeting the increasing consumer demand for greater quantities of meat, dairy, eggs, and other livestock-derived products.
