Synthetic Spider Silk Segmentation
The synthetic spider silk market is segmented by product into genetically modified yeast fermentation, genetically modified silkworm, and genetically modified Escherichia coli (E-coli) bacteria fermentation. Amongst these, the genetically modified yeast fermentation segment is evaluated to hold the largest share in the market over the forecast period, which can be attributed to the growing demand for genetically modified yeast fermentation in healthcare and textile industries across the globe. Furthermore, based on application, the segment for textile is projected to occupy the largest share during the forecast period on account of rising demand for synthetic spider silk to manufacture sports clothing. Additionally, increased military investments by developed nations for the manufacturing of bulletproof clothing made from this fiber is other factor expected to boost the growth of this market segment in the coming years. For instance, the United States spent the most on military in 2019 amounting to about USD 730 billion.
