Gram-positive Bacterial Infections Market to Garner Brimming Revenues by 2026

Posted by Aman Jaiswar on June 6th, 2019

Gram-positive bacterial infection drugs act against gram-positive bacterial infections such as MRSA infections, sinusitis, and pneumonia. Gram-positive bacteria are those class of bacteria that retain gram stain and hence, are observed as violet purple colored stains when observed under the microscope. They are a major class of bacteria that cause various infections in humans. These drugs act by various mechanisms such as inhibition of cell wall synthesis, inhibition of protein biosynthesis, and inhibition of DNA replication.

The global Gram-Positive Bacterial Infections Market was valued at around US $ 51,450 Mn in 2017. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 1.5% from 2018 to 2026. The market for gram-positive bacterial infections is expanding significantly, owing to an increase in the number of cases of gram-positive bacterial infections and a rapid rise in antibacterial resistance. Increased government initiatives and funding for R&D activities & newer bacterial infection treatment and infection control in healthcare settings is also a key factors driving the market globally.
