Regarding the market, without careful investigation, there is no right to speak. As a part of the market, companies should be paying more and more attention to market research. The following is the antibiotic market analysis related content that I have compiled for you. I hope it will be helpful to readers.
Antibiotic market analysis:
Antibiotics are produced by microorganisms (including bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes) or higher animals and plants in the life process. A class of secondary metabolites with antipathogenic or other activities produced in the body, and chemicals that can interfere with the developmental functions of other living cells. It not only kills bacteria but also has good inhibitory and killing effects on other pathogenic microorganisms such as mold, mycoplasma, chlamydia, spirochetes, rickettsia, etc. Antibiotics can be substances produced during the growth and reproduction of certain microorganisms. In addition to being directly extracted from these substances, antibiotics used to treat diseases can also be completely or partially artificially synthesized. In layman's terms, antibiotics are medicines used to treat various non-viral infections.
Industry analysts from Shangpu Consulting pointed out that China is a big country in the use of antibiotics and a big producer of antibiotics: it produces about 210,000 tons of antibiotic raw materials annually, exports 30,000 tons, and the rest is for its own use (including medical and agricultural use), per capita Annual consumption is about 138 grams (only 13 grams in the United States).
According to the Ministry of Health’s national bacterial resistance monitoring results from 2006 to 2007, the annual use rate of antimicrobial drugs in hospitals across the country is as high as 74%. No country in the world uses antibiotics on such a large scale. In developed countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom, the antibiotic usage rate in hospitals is only 22% to 25%. China's obstetrics and gynecology department has long been the hardest hit area by the abuse of antibiotics. Statistics from the obstetrics and gynecology department of Changning District Central Hospital in Shanghai for many years show that the current resistance to penicillin has reached almost 100%. Among hospitalized patients in China, the usage rate of antibiotics is as high as 70%, and almost all surgical patients use antibiotics, with the rate as high as 97%.
In recent years, the average annual growth rate of the world antibiotic market has been about 8%, and the global antibiotic market share is approximately US$25 to 26 billion. Among them, the United States ranks first, with sales in the field of antibiotics of approximately US$8.4 billion; followed by Europe, with sales of approximately US$6.3 billion. Among the antibiotic categories, cephalosporins account for the largest proportion, about 25%, followed by penicillins, about 20%, and fluoroquinolones, about 15%. At this stage, antibiotic resistance and generic drug competition are two important factors affecting the global antibiotic market. In recent years, the frequent occurrence of antibiotic resistance has affected the use of some major classes of antibiotics. At the same time, the World Health Organization has also made recommendations on the use of antibiotics in various countries, and the antibiotic markets in various countries have been restricted to a certain extent.
The "2014-2018 China 7-aca Cephalosporin Antibiotics Industry Forecast and Investment Strategy Research Report" released by Shangpu Consulting shows that my country's antibiotic market will not be greatly affected by drug resistance issues. , but will expand the scale of the antibiotic market. At the same time, our country must promote the upgrade from "Made in China" to "Intelligent Manufacturing in China" by changing strategies, exploring innovation, exploring antibiotic manufacturing from new fields, and striving to develop antibacterial drugs with high efficiency, low toxicity, and broad potential.
Antibiotic market analysis:
Yesterday, when representatives of the Guangdong delegation were reviewing the government work report in groups, Zhong Nanshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said that China is now one of the countries with the most serious bacterial resistance in the world. First, some patients can be said to be "invulnerable" because their antibiotic resistance is too high, and the use of various antibiotics on the patients is ineffective. However, the reason for the excessive use of antibiotics is not only the misuse of antibiotics in some hospitals, but also the misuse of antibiotics in the domestic breeding and animal husbandry industries. These remarks triggered heated discussions among the representatives. (Guangzhou Daily, March 8)
China is already one of the countries with the most serious bacterial resistance in the world. Some patients are resistant to multiple antibiotics and face the prospect of no cure. dangerous situation. The high level of antibiotics in the human body is due to the misuse of antibiotics by the medical sector on the one hand, and the misuse of antibiotics by the domestic breeding and animal husbandry industries on the other. People who eat fish, shrimp, cattle and sheep fed with excessive doses of antibiotics also accumulate antibiotics in their bodies, causing bacteria in the human body to become resistant to antibiotics.
To control the abuse of antibiotics in the breeding industry, it is necessary for the state to formulate breeding standards that are in line with the country and can ensure human safety, and it also requires law enforcement agencies to implement them to the letter. In fact, since the melamine incident in 2008, our country’s breeding standards have been raised to international standards. Large-scale breeding enterprises that export their products abroad can consciously implement breeding standards and reasonably control the use of antibiotics due to export standard restrictions. Furthermore, their breeding scale is large and they are also regulated by law enforcement agencies. However, for those free-range farmers, strict breeding standards have become child's play. After all, fish, shrimp and other aquatic products and poultry livestock that use antibiotics have a high survival rate, grow fresh and fat, and sell well. Antibiotics have become a problem for some farmers. The only magic weapon for increasing the profits of households.
Strict enforcement by law enforcement agencies is of course an effective way to control the abuse of antibiotics in the breeding industry. However, it is beyond the capabilities of law enforcement agencies to fully supervise free-range farmers to strictly abide by standards. In fact, consumers can also be involved in combating the abuse of antibiotics in the breeding industry, and market leverage can also exert its power. Obviously, if we can all consciously boycott live animal products with heavy antibiotic residues, the products will be unmarketable, farmers will definitely pay attention to the feelings of consumers, and free-range farmers will not dare to abuse antibiotics. However, the problem that needs attention is that many consumers only pay attention to the appearance and ignore the residues of antibiotics and pesticides. Another problem is that consumers also don’t have the tools to test for antibiotic or pesticide residues. Consumers who value antibiotics can only rely on their own experience like Professor Zhong Nanshan and avoid buying fat fish.
From this perspective, the industrial and commercial and quality inspection departments can provide rapid antibiotic and pesticide residue testing tools in large markets, supermarkets, trading places, etc. for consumers to use for free. Then, consumers can get the "intrinsic quality" of the agricultural products and live products they choose, and can use this to make scientific and fair evaluations of the products, and confidently vote with their feet for those products with excessive amounts of antibiotics. In this way, the lever of the market is mobilized, which is more effective than the law enforcement agencies trudging through mountains and rivers to supervise the farmers.
