Global transgenic animals Market Size, Share, Forecast Report, 2020-2027

Transgenic animals carry a foreign gene deliberately inserted into its genome. The insertion of the foreign DNA into the host body is carried out by the application of recombinant DNA technology. The transmission of the foreign gene is facilitated through the germ line so that every cell of the targeted animal contains the same modified genetic material. In 1997, Rosie (first transgenic cow) was produced with the aim of generating human protein-enriched milk. The milk was nutritionally balanced as compared to the natural bovine milk and was suitably exploited to meet the special nutritional requirements of the geriatric population and babies. Insulin, growth hormone, and anti-blood clotting factors are some of the products that can be effectively obtained from the milk of transgenic cows, sheep, or goats. Growing biotechnology sector followed by rising R&D expenses is estimated to be a major driver for the market growth during the forecast period. In 2016, the revenue generated by the emerging biotech industries across the globe was estimated to be around USD 139.4 billion. Moreover, increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and other disorders along with the rising healthcare expenditures and growing awareness for the transgenic animals is boosting the market growth. According to the World Health Organization in 2017, cardiovascular diseases were the main cause of the deaths across the globe. It was estimated that in 2015, approximately 17.7 million people died from cardiovascular diseases, representing 31% of all the global deaths. Of these deaths, an estimated 7.4 million were due to the coronary heart diseases and 6.7 million were due to stroke. However, stringent FDA policies followed by the high developmental cost and reluctance in the acceptance of transgenic products is estimated to restrain the market growth. The cost of producing a transgenic animal may range from USD 20,000 to USD 300,000.
