Segment Analysis
The global sialic acid market has been segmented on the basis of form, application, and region.
On the basis of form, the market has been divided into solid and liquid. Sialic acid in solid form includes powdered and crystalized acid and is also known as dry or dehydrated sialic acid. Solid sialic acid is preferred in the food and pharmaceuticals industries owing to its superior blending properties with other ingredients and high shelf life as compared to the liquid form.
On the basis of application, the market has been divided into infant nutrition, dietary supplements, cosmetics and personal care products, and others. The infant nutrition segment accounted for 61.62% of the market share in 2018. However, the cosmetics and personal care products segment is projected to register the highest growth rate of 12.96% during the forecast period. Breast milk is a rich source of sialic acid, N-acetylneuraminic, especially in the early stages of lactation. Sialic acid is thought to play a crucial role in the structural and functional establishment of synaptic pathways by facilitating the binding of transmitter molecules to the synaptic membrane. Furthermore, sufficient sialic acid supply is essential in neonates and very-low-birth-weight infants for normal brain development. In dietary applications, sialic acid supplements are available in the form of candies, gummies, tablets, capsules, soft gels, gel caps, powders, and liquids.
