Can UCB Stem Cells Be Permanent Solution For Chronic Disorders?

Collected at the time of birth of a child, Umbical Cord Blood Cells are considered rich in stem cells and hence, are made used in research and treatment of genetically disease. UCB stem cells are very useful to generate red blood cells and cells of the immune system as it has have hematopoietic stem cells - alike in the bone marrow.  At present Cord blood stem cells are used to cure of blood disorders and immune system conditions such as leukaemia, anaemia and autoimmune diseases.

A recent study by Allied Market Research, global umbilical cord blood stem cell market is observed to reach $11.5 billion in 2014 from $6.5 billion in 2012. Further, it is estimated to reach $56.4 billion by 2020 growing at a CAGR of 33.4%.

As per analysts, cost effectiveness and efficiency of cord blood stem cell therapies gives it an upper edge when compared to other therapies and also it also assist in discovering new therapies for treatment of chronic disorders. Factors that are working favorable for its growth are rising awareness and increasing government support for cord blood stem cell.

Demand for an enhanced and cost effective treatment is rising due to rise in rate of diseases like immune disease, diabetes, metabolic disease, cancer  etc has increased the. As per the report, these stem cells give a higher cell count in low volume of blood and can be easily stored in Cord Blood Stem Cell Banks.

As per the report, clinical trials are in their last stage and hence, this will commercialize the application of cord stem cell market. Report prepared by AMR observed that in developed countries patents for therapeutics and collection techniques method are approved by their respective governmental organization. But UCB stem cell patents are trivial in developing countries.

As far as geographical location is concerned, report stated that the 44% of total revenue generated by North America in 2013. Also study suggests that due to rising demand for chronic disorder treatments and rising awareness Asia Pacific region will show higher growth in UCB stem cells market.

PLA: Best Alternative For Plastics

One of the best alternatives for plastics, PLA is increasingly getting adopted. Made out of cornstarch- renewable source of energy, It is a plastic like material. Polylactic acid being biodegradable is its best part. Many environmentalists see PLA as best replacement for plastics to cut down the environmental hazards by plastic, 

As per the report prepared by Allied Market Research market for Polylactic Acid will reach $5.2 billion by 2020 with a of CAGR 19.5%. Analysts stated that ban on plastic products by government and its incentive plans chalked out for PLA production are two key factors that factors for its growth. They further estimated that research on reinforcing PLA with other materials for a better product will act as a catalyst for PLA market.

It cost-effectiveness is credited to its low cost and easy availability of raw material as per experts. They estimated that the cost will further dip with research of better alternative source of raw materials. Analysts anticipated that need for an industrial degradation system to degrade PLA will deter its growth..

According to AMR’s analysts, global Polylactic acid market is segmented on the basis of its Application and Raw material. Application segment is further divided as Electronics, Biomedical, Agriculture, Textile, Packaging and others. Among all the above market, Packaging has the highest share and is expected to lead the market in forecasted span of time. However, they studied that Textile and Electronics market will quickly adopt.

In terms of geographical locations, Europe, Asia Pacific, North America and rest of the world are its market.  Asia Pacific is studied to have the highest CAGR of 21.6% from 2013-2020 due to abundance feedstock availability and government incentives plan. Analysts further projected that Europe will lead the market in term of revenue during same span.

key firms dealing in PLA market are Dow Chemical, Eastman Chemical, Bayer AG, Exxon Mobil Chemical, China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (Sinopec), Braskem,  Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (MCC) and Nova Chemicals Corporation.

CGM: Now diabetes cannot stop you from living

Glucose Monitoring System is am efficient device to provide you with the information of glucose level in your body. In order to get an insight about glucose highs and lows after eating different kinds of food, CGM is very useful; especially for diabetic patients. Thus, immediately taking note of changing glucose level, one can take required precautions on the spot.

As per report by Allied Market Research, market for continuous glucose monitoring will reach $568.5 million by 2020 from $194.8 in 2012 at a CAGR of 14.8%. As per AMR’s analysts, this growth of market is because of factors like its ease in use over conventional glucose monitoring devices, its ability to detect hyper and hypoglycemic situation at an early stage, increased awareness among population globally and rising diabetes cases.    
                                        
As per the report, Market is gradually overcoming the challenge of commercialization for closed loops Continuous Glucose Monitoring devices with technological innovation. Analysts stated that it will lead to mass adoption of CGM.  Factors such as CGM’s superiority over self-monitoring devices, Approval for artificial pancreas by FDA and rising diabetic incidence will boost the market growth.
