Plant Based API Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Type (Alkaloids, Anthocyanins, Flavonoids, Phenolic Acids, Terpenoids, Lignans and Stilbenes), By Application (Pharmaceuticals, Nutraceuticals, Herbal Based Industries), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2023-2031

The Global Plant-Based API Market Size is predicted to witness a 7.49% CAGR during the forecast period for 2023-2031.

Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and excipients are the two most essential components in the manufacture of medication. The API is the chemical from which the medication is created. In contrast, the excipient is a component that isn't the drug but works as a medium that allows the body to absorb the medicine, including lactose or mineral oil, in a pill. The rising rate of chronic illnesses and the growing importance of generics are some of the vital drivers driving the growth of the Indian APIs industry.

Advances in active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacture and the growth of the biotech sector are driving the market growth. The aging population positively impacts the development of several chronic and acute ailments that necessitate more advanced pharmaceuticals to mitigate their effects. This is why the global Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) Market has been growing. COVID-19 has also had a major effect on the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) industry's growth.

Pharmaceutical companies have become the most significant industry in the globe during the pandemic due to the widespread use of various drugs to treat COVID-19 patients' symptoms and various medical conditions, including high fever, cough, and cold. 

Recent Developments:

• In 2021-The University of Bristol identified a way for generating a major component of the malaria medicine artemisinin using genetically modified yeast. This procedure is more environmentally friendly and cost-effective than traditional medicine-making methods, which entail extracting it from the artemisia plant.

• In 2020-Amyris, a biotechnology company based in California stated that it had successfully manufactured a plant-based version of the anti-malarial medicine artemisinin. The medicine was created using a proprietary yeast strain and subsequently licensed to pharmaceutical companies for further development and commercialization.
