Lactoferrin is derived from the transferrin family and is a multifunctional protein. Transferrins are
glycoproteins and are known to have the ability to control the free iron content in the human body,
and bind them together. The transferrin family derivative is present in extensive quantities in
various parts of the human body including, tears, nasal secretions, milk, and saliva.
The multifunctional protein helps to separate the free iron in the human body and also remove any
content which promotes bacterial activity. The transferring family derivative helps to inhibit the
bacterial growth by binding the lipopolysaccharides with bacterial walls and thus forming
peroxides. Owing to this ability of the multifunctional protein, it is widely used in the healthcare
sector for curing and preventing bacterial infections & diseases. The antibacterial function of
lactoferrin is projected to show a high growth over the next eight years. The antibacterial function
segment had a market share of 20.4% in 2016.
