The global demand for Antifreeze Proteins Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD XX MN by 2028 from USD XX MN in 2021 with a CAGR of XX% under the study period 2022 - 2028.
Antifreeze proteins or ice structuring proteins are proteins and peptides with a low molecular weight that lower the water's freezing point and inhibit ice-crystal growth. It is a unique ability that has not been observed with any other biopolymer. These were first discovered in Antarctic marine fishes. Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) produced by specific animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria allow their survival in temperatures below the freezing point of water. AFPs are derived from different species with different cold adaptations, and environment stress possesses different structures. It is currently being used in food industry for frozen food products. AFPs show significant potentials for biotechnology industry.
Market Dynamics
Demand for antifreeze proteins is anticipated to swell with an increase in awareness of benefits about and rising usage in frozen food products globally. The rise in living standards, changes in lifestyles in developing countries, growing demand for convenience foods, and increasing research will accelerate demand for AFPs. Due to unique features and functions, their capabilities have been utilized in cell biology and biotechnology. Robust research is being carried out focused on exploring, recognizing, purifying, evaluating, analyzing their mechanisms, and featuring bioinformatics studies to support the potential utilizations of AFPs in different aspects. Favorable results from the research are estimated to create new market opportunities. However, there is a limited number of commercial applications, and the high cost of production and R&D expenditure limits the scope of the antifreeze proteins market.
