Key Trends in the Peptide Synthesis Market

(2023年)

Current Trends and Innovations:

One of the key trends in the peptide synthesis market is the development of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs). CPPs are short peptides that can penetrate cell membranes and deliver drugs or other molecules into cells. CPPs have shown promising results in the treatment of various diseases such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

Another trend in the market is the use of peptides as diagnostic tools. Peptides can be used as biomarkers for the early detection of diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's disease. The development of new technologies for peptide synthesis is also driving innovation in the market.

Strategic Initiatives:

Key players in the market include Bachem Holding AG, CEM Corporation, AAPPTec LLC, Genscript Biotech Corporation, Advanced ChemTech Inc., Merck KGaA, Novo Nordisk A/S, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., and AnaSpec Inc. These companies are focusing on strategic initiatives such as collaborations, partnerships, and acquisitions to expand their market presence.

For instance, in April 2022, Bachem Holding AG announced the acquisition of Synprosis, a specialist in the development of synthetic peptides and peptidomimetics for drug discovery. The acquisition is expected to strengthen Bachem's position in the peptide synthesis market.
