A
new research report by Transparency Market Research offers a
comprehensive evaluation of the global D-amino
acids market.
The study, titled “D-Amino
Acids Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends
and Forecast 2014 - 2020”,
is available for sale on the firm’s website.
Amino
acids are organic compounds comprised of amine and carboxylic groups
and a unique side chain. Amino acids perform essential functions such
as protein buildup and also participate in various metabolic
processes. All amino acids except glycine exist in two sterioisomeric
forms also called as enantiomers. These called as Dextro (D) or Levo
(L) rotatory forms. These amino acids show optical activity and have
ability to rotate the plane polarized light. Amino acids rotating the
plane towards left are L-amino acids; while those rotating the plane
towards right are D-amino acids. It was believed that, majority of
the amino acids found in higher life forms are L-amino acids; and
that D-amino acids are mostly found in cell wall of bacteria. However
recent research suggests that D-amino acids are found in humans as
well as animals, and participate in important metabolic pathways.

Various
discoveries have proved the importance of D-amino acids in
pharmaceutical industry and food industry. Although research is in
its nascent stage, an array of applications of D-amino acids are
driving the market. D-amino acids are a major component in
manufacturing of antibiotics, siderophores, surfactins, and
peptidoglycans. D-amino acids are used in semi-synthesis of
amoxicillin, ampicillin, cephadroxyl and various others. Development
of organic amino acids for industrial usage and for polypeptides is a
challenge for research personnel. Production of amino acids results
in a racemic mixture of D- and L- amino acids; hence manufacturing of
optically pure amino acids needs further processing which increases
the cost of production. Racemase enzyme is widely used in industries
to convert L-amino acids to D-amino acids. Due to high cost of
production, D-amino acids are more costly as compared to L-amino
acids. In view to reduce this cost, scientists are trying to discover
alternative methods to manufacture optically pure amino acids. An
article published in Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry in 2013,
details a chemical approach to convert L-amino acids to D forms. This
method is expected to simplify the process and also reduce the
operating cost.
The
global D-amino acids market is expected to grow rapidly due to its
increasing scope of applications. Research and development towards
simplifying production process is also expected to expand the market
in the near future. Application of antibiotics in biopharmaceutical
research has also been a key segment for D-amino acids. Increased
demand for processed food, growing demand for animal feed are other
major drivers for this market.
Asia-Pacific
dominates the global D-amino acids market. Asia Pacific region has
been the home for generic drugs manufacturers for a long time. Low
operating costs, availability of cheap yet skilled labor and large
customer base are key reasons why western countries prefer
outsourcing manufacturing business to Asian countries. China is
emerging as a prime destination for amino acids manufacturers. Large
numbers of companies have emerged as global suppliers of D-amino
acids; thus helping manufacturers to tap global cost effective
resources.
