Gamma Polyglutamic Acid Market Necessity And Demand 2018 to 2025

Polyglutamic acid is a bipolymer of the amino acid glutamic acid. In gamma polyglutamic acid, peptide bonds are between amino group of glutamic acid and the carboxyl group at the end of the glutamic acid side chain. It is formed by bacterial fermentation by Bacillus subtilis using glutamic acid and is a major constituent of the Japanese food, natto. Gamma polyglutamic acid has wide range of applications from food, medicine to water treatment. It has non-toxic, edible, film-forming, adhesive, and moisture retention properties and can be used as drug carrier and bio-adhesive material. Gamma polyglutamic acid has been widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food, agriculture, and sewage treatment industries.

Gamma polyglutamic acid is used in agriculture industry for increasing quality and quantity of plants, for soil improvement, and seed-coat, and to enhance fertilizer utilization. It can be made into hydrogel, which has an excellent water-binding ability, and can absorb water up to 3,500 times of its weight. Hence, it proves itself as excellent for agricultural and environmental applications.
