The Global Bacterial Amylase Market Growth, COVID-19 impact and Forecast (2021-2026)
Global Bacterial Amylase market is segmented based on amylase type as Alpha amylase, Beta Amylase and Gamma Amylase; based on applications as food and beverages industry, textile industry, paper industry, animal feed industry and others; based on geography as APAC, Europe, North America, and ROW.
Introduction
Amylase enzymes obtained from a wide variety of bacterial species are pursuing applications in various end-use industries, such as bakery and confectionary and alcoholic beverages, etc., which have increased bacterial amylase requirement.
It has been used as a food additive and for making detergents. Amylases also play an important role in beer and liquor brewing from sugars (based on starch). In this fermentation process, yeast is used to ingest sugars, and alcohol is produced.
The upward pattern in the use of bacterial enzymes for catalytic processes is expected to accelerate the growth in demand for bacterial amylase in the industries for the large substrates. In addition, demand for bacterial amylase is expected to increase among the textiles and paper pulp industries.
The upward trend of use of enzymes for the catalytic processes for the wide range substrates in the industries is expected to encourage the evolution of bacterial amylase market.

Market Overview
The global bacterial amylase market is expected to grow to $640.69 million by 2026 at a CAGR of 5%
Bacterial enzymes that are sourced from different strains of Bacillus spp. Lactobacillus spp.,
Pseudomonas spp. etc. and mostly used in industrial applications.
The demand for processed food also helps to boost the industries such as industry and agriculture. Such factors will boost the consumption of amylase required in processed foods.

Key Trends
Development in the livestock feed industry would increase demand for bacterial amylase.
Demand for bio-preservation is increasing due consumer demand for necessary safety standards in food products with increased shelf life. With keeping food products appealing, producers of dairy, beverages, and fresh baking products are focusing on finding natural ways to keep their portfolios fresh for a longer time.
Consumer preference toward chemical-free, natural, and organic food has reduced the usage of food additives, including emulsifiers.
Key Market Players
The market is dominated by global vendors like BIO-CAT Company, LALLEMAND, Tokyo Chemical Industry, Worthington Biochemical Corporation, American Biosystems and Prozomix Ltd.

Growth Drivers and Challenges
The upward pattern in the use of bacterial enzymes for catalytic processes is expected to accelerate the growth in demand for bacterial amylase in the industries for the large substrates.
Innovative advances in the production of starter feeds and starchy feeds, such as corn grain, feed syrups, and so on, is anticipated to drive bacterial amylase adoption over the forecast period.
The demand for plant-based and fungi sourced amylase enzymes have been increasing as compared to bacterial amylase enzyme, which is expected to hinder the progress of the global bacterial amylase market to certain extent, during the period of forecast.
Controversies remain surrounded regarding the use of antibiotics as animal growth promoters. Given the widespread use of antibiotics at therapeutic levels to allow animals to combat microbial infections and thus produce enhanced efficiency and profitability, the concerns based around their negative effects on the entire food chain prevail.
COVID-19 disease began to spread around the world, millions of people worldwide were infected with COVID-19 disease, and major countries around the world have implemented foot prohibitions and work stoppage orders.
