Nisin Market

Nisin Market, by Application, and Geography Trends and Forecast till 2025
Nisin is a polypeptide that is ribosomally synthesized by Lactococcus lactis. It is an
antibiotic classified as Type A (I) lantibiotic. Nisin shows broad spectrum antibacterial
activity against various food-borne bacteria such as Listeria monocytogenes. It is
usually available as yellowish or greyish white powder.
The Joint FAO/WHO (Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization)
Expert Committee on Food Additives approved nisin as an antimicrobial for food in
1969. Nisin is used as a food preservative in pasteurized dairy products, processed
cheese, canned vegetables, pasteurized liquid egg, and high moisture containing hot
baked products such as crumpets. It is used to control spoilage caused due to lactic
acid bacteria in low pH food such as salads and alcoholic beverages such as wine
and beer. It is also used as an adjunct in food processing technologies such as
electroporation and high pressure sterilization. Advancement in nisin production
technology has enabled production of highly purified nisin.

Synthetic food preservatives such as butylated hydroxyanisole, butylated
hydroxytoluene, monosodium glutamate, propyl gallate, and sodium nitrate are
known to produce health risks ranging from mild headaches to serious diseases
such as cancer. This has increased the demand for natural preservatives such as
nisin. Growing health concerns among the populace has increased the inclination
towards natural preservatives, in turn, boosting the demand for nisin. Its wide range
of application in the meat, beverages, canned foods, and other industries also
contribute to major market growth.
Development of antibiotic resistance and higher costs associated with the production
of nisin as compared to synthetic preservatives pose as restraints to growth of the
nisin market.
On the basis of application, the nisin market is segmented into meat, dairy products,
beverages, bakery products, canned vegetables, and others. The meat segment is
estimated to be the dominant segment, majorly attributed to the growing demand for
meat globally. According to the OECD-FAO (Organization for Economic
Co-operation and Development-Food and Agriculture Organization) Agricultural
Outlook 2016-2025, the global annual meat consumption is estimated to increase by
1.3 kg retail weight to 35.3 kg retail weight. The global annual meat consumption per
capita is expected to reach 35.3 kg retail weight by 2025. This indicates growth of
the meat segment in the near future.
North America accounted for the largest market share of 34.69% in 2016. The U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) imposed stringent regulations for food
contamination with microbes such as Listeria monocytogenes. Between March 2016
and July 2016, the FDA recalled around 456 products, including frozen vegetables
and related products from CRF Frozen Foods and firms due to detection of Listeria
monocytogenes. Such instances have increased the significance of preservatives
effective against Listeria monocytogenes such as nisin, in this region.
Asia Pacific is estimated to be the fastest growing nisin market, owing to the
presence of emerging economies such as India and China. Growing awareness
regarding natural preservatives coupled with growth in the meat and dairy industry is
further propelling growth of the nisin market in the region.
