Egg White Peptide Market

Egg white, also called egg albumen or the glair is a clear liquid present within the egg, consisting of functionally important proteins having high nutritional quality, contains essential amino acids, and is easily digestible. Various studies and researches have detected the presence of several different protein components in egg albumen. Ovalbumin, ovotransferrin, ovomucoid, ovomucin, and lysozyme are the main proteins of egg white, which are used commercially. The degradation of egg white proteins with the enzymes hydrolysis form the egg white peptide consisting of multiple amino acid linkages and a more superior nutritional value than the egg white protein has itself. Generally, the egg white protein is obtained from chicken egg and has improved the quality of essential amino acids as comparedto soybean protein, milk protein, and egg white. The peptides are used in the form of an ingredient in some food products and cosmetic preparation. 

COVID-19 Scenario Analysis:

• The outbreak of the coronavirus has impacted the egg peptide market as the lockdown scenario caused shutdown of many manufacturing units and further led to a shortage of manpower and production.
• The lockdown scenario caused immobility of the raw material which caused hindrance in the production and end product supply. The global poultry trade is highly affected due to the spread of the coronavirus and also led to change in consumer buying behavior. 
• The uncertainty of supply chain and closing down of distribution channels such as supermarket and retail stores has anticipated to lower down the sales and revenue of egg white peptide.  
• The post-COVID-19 scenario will create opportunities for the egg white peptide market to grow, due to the change the consumer buying behavior and the inclination towards healthy products without any risk of contamination.

Top Impacting Factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact Analysis

Egg white peptide is a bioactive peptide used in most of the functional foods as the active ingredient, and promotes nutritional value and well being of the product. During the preparation of the product these bioactive peptides are either simply added or modification of the usual manufacturing process is carried out. The egg white peptide is used in several industries such as bakery and confectionery, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and others. The enhancement in innovation & technology, investment in R&D, increasing health awareness, improved health benefits of the product, residential and commercial use, ease of use & availability of the product, inhibition of certain disorders and conditions by egg white peptide, and development of functional and designer foods drive the growth of the global egg white peptide market. However, availability of the substitute products, shortage in supply of raw material, loss of nutrients while processing, misconception about the products, and traditional use of the egg white hinder the market growth.

The global egg white peptide trends are as follows:

Increased vertical of egg white peptide market

Egg white peptide has gained popularity and increased demand due to its positive impact on the health of the cardiovascular, endocrine, immune, and nervous systems. The egg white peptides are the bioactive peptides available in liquid and powder form and can be used as an important ingredient in several products. They exhibit functions such as anti-microbial activity, anti-cancer activity, anti-hypersensitive activity, anti-adhesive property, and immunomodulating activity. The egg white peptides can be used for texturizing, foaming, thickening, gelling, emulsifying, and keeping amino acid balance by preventing coagulation on heating in the food & beverage industry. They have exhibited diverse activity in preventing and maintaining certain conditions such as hypertension, LDL cholesterol level, liver fat, liver cholesterol, immunological & cardiovascular disorder, anticancer, bone growth, controlling hormone activity, and boosting immunity. The egg white peptides have been proven more efficient than protein or amino acid because they have a higher speed of digestion, absorption, high protein, and low-fat quantity, branched-chain and sulfur-containing amino acids and inhibiting oxidation level. Thus, the demand and requirement of the egg white peptide products are increasing exponentially for therapeutic use as well as for commercial use.The key players have been inclined towards investing in R&D and the development of variants of the egg white peptide by using different major and minor proteins and amino acid sequences present in the natural source of egg white.

Kewpie, a leading player in egg white market has launched egg white lysozyme, isolated and purified from chicken egg white, which can be used as a food additive and to improve the shelf life of fishery products, livestock products, chilled foods, and confectionery products, and in controlling certain micro-organisms in processing.
