North America Oryzenin Market was worth USD 30.76 million in 2021, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.5%, to reach USD 57.93 million by 2026. Though rice is essentially a high calorie food, it also has a protein content of about 7%. Oryzenin, a type of glutelin is the major protein present in rice grains. Rice protein has higher nutritional value than that of other cereals such as wheat and maize.
Glutelin found in rice proteins does not trigger celiac disease unlike that of glutelins found in wheat or barley. It is because the glutelin present in rice is a low molecular weight glutelin whereas high molecular glutelin is the one which might trigger celiac disease. They exist as macromolecular complexes and are hydrophobic. They are soluble in acid and alkaline solutions and are processed into polypeptides to store in vacuolar compartments of the cells.
Drivers and Restraints of North America Oryzenin Market:
With the increase in demand for rice protein in the market, oryzenin has become an essential ingredient in food and beverage industries due to its high protein content and gelling properties. Texturing and emulsifying properties of oryzenin is also one of the major reasons increasing the demand for rice protein. Increasing health awareness among consumers, increasing R&D activities and increasing demand for sources of protein which are lactose and gluten free are driving the oryzenin market. However, stringent government regulations and availability of alternate protein sources are restraining the market growth.
