Global market valuation was derived through revenue mapping and production volume analysis. The methodology included:
Identification of 50+ key manufacturers and biotechnology firms across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa
Product mapping across Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida utilis, Pichia pastoris, and Kluyveromyces lactis source categories
Form factor analysis across powder, liquid, and granule presentations
Functionality segmentation covering immunomodulatory, antioxidant, cholesterol reduction, and digestive health applications
End-use industry coverage spanning food industry, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and animal feed sectors
Analysis of reported and modeled annual revenues specific to yeast beta-glucan portfolios
Coverage of manufacturers representing 75-80% of global market share in 2024
Extrapolation using bottom-up (production volume × ASP by country/region) and top-down (manufacturer revenue validation) approaches to derive segment-specific valuations
