According to the current analysis of Reports and Data, the global Lactoferrin Market was valued at USD 219.3 Million in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 374.0 Million by the year 2028, at a CAGR of 6.8%. Iron deficiency and diarrhea are two of the most significant issues for global health. Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional deficiency in the world, affecting nearly 25% of the world population (UNICEF/WHO 1999). The prevalence of iron deficiency in developing countries is illustrated by comparison with other deficiencies: iron deficiency affects 3.5 billion people, while vitamin A and iodine deficiency affect 0.3 billion people and 0.8 billion people, respectively.
Lactoferrin has been shown to limit the formation of biofilms by specific organisms, inhibit adhesion to host cells by other organisms and to directly bind to viral particles of herpes simplex virus, HIV, and adenovirus. A specific region of lactoferrin, near the N terminus of the molecule, is strongly basic and is reported to mediate some of lactoferrin’s antimicrobial activity. ‘Lactoferricins’, small peptides containing this basic region, produced by proteolytic cleavage reportedly bind to lipopolysaccharide, leading to disruption of the bacterial cell wall and cytoplasmic membrane. Lactoferrin administered orally to immature neonates protects the bowel from inflammation.
