Virginiamycin Production Cost Breakup By Fermentation Method

Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024  | From $ USD

This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of virginiamycin production by fermentation method. The preparation process is initiated by fermenting Streptomyces virginiae bacterium. The process is carried out by fermenting the bacterium in a culturing medium comprising carbon compounds (such as sucrose, glucose, etc.), nitrogen sources (such as ammonia, nitrates, etc.), and MYM-agar, etc. The cultured bacterium is filtered and crystallized to obtain virginiamycin as the end product.

Top Producers of Virginiamycin

  • Phibro Animal Health Corporation
  • Merck Animal Health
  • Ceva
  • Boehringer Ingelheim
  • Vetoquinol

Feedstock for Virginiamycin

Virginiamycin is an antibiotic chemical prepared by fermenting Streptomyces virginiae bacterium. There are different sources that are used to ferment Streptomyces bacterium varieties, including carbon sources such as glucose and fructose, etc., along with nitrates and ammonia. These sources serve as the culturing medium and, thus, are considered the major feedstocks for virginiamycin.

The procurement of virginiamycin is directly governed by some major factors, including the production of its raw materials (including ammonia, glucose, sucrose, etc., for preparation of the culturing medium for virginiamycin production), with variations in its market prices and distribution. Moreover, other factors, including the demand for virginiamycin in the healthcare sector (as an antibiotic) and petrochemical industry (for ethanol fuel production), trade, transportation, and governmental and financial policies, together determine its procurement across borders.
