Market Synopsis:
Global Synthetic Biology Market is valued at USD 10.11 Billion in 2021 and is projected to attain a value of USD 32.73 Billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 27.1% during the forecast period, 2022–2028. Living materials, biocomputing, therapeutic genome editing, living biotherapeutics, multiplexed diagnostics and cellular recording, electrical interfacing, and third-generation biorefineries have all benefited from Synthetic Biology advancements in recent years. Agriculture, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology industries have been able to generate synthetic biology products thanks to advances in genome editing, gene circuit design, metagenomic discovery, automated strain engineering, directed evolution, and metabolic engineering. Chemicals produced by altered cells/enzymes, such as genome-edited soy, CAR-Ts, and engineered bacteria, include diamines, sitagliptin, and leghemoglobin.
Synthetic Biology Market Size, 2021 To 2028 (USD Billion)
The growing population and changing eating habits, combined with resource scarcity, have aided nutrition research and development. Synthetic Biology has helped to identify a number of good food production technologies. The technology is projected to aid in the generation of higher food yields and the advancement of pest management techniques.
Rising R&D Funding and Growing Initiatives in Synthetic Biology
Due to extended research times and approval delays, the R&D business has always been capital-intensive. R&D is recognised by governments as a critical investment for a country's prosperity, international competitiveness, and public benefit. As a result, R&D spending and funding have steadily increased throughout the years. According to Business Wire (September 2020), the life sciences industry's R&D spending increased by 22% from 2018 to 2019. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology businesses spend a lot of money on research in order to produce breakthrough compounds that will meet the expanding demands of the healthcare industry and fight new ailments. The global pharmaceutical R&D sector contributes for over 80% of the life sciences industry's total R&D spending.
Biosafety, biosecurity, and ethical concerns
The purposeful or unintended release of synthetic organisms into the environment during research and other uses is a major biosafety risk in Synthetic Biology. When synthetic microorganisms are released into the environment, they can mutate or interact with other species, leading to crossbreeding and bio errors. This may put natural species' ecosystems in jeopardy. Another major biosafety worry is the emergence of antibiotic-resistant superbugs. The European Union (EU) has recently supported various studies into the environmental impact of genetically modified bacteria released for plant growth or bioremediation.
