Recent food poisoning outbreaks coupled with high rates of hospital-acquired infections had heightened the awareness among people. Nowadays, people mainly insist on safe and healthy products by offering more for such goods and services.

Silver based biocides are widely used in medical grade applications owing to its excellent antimicrobial properties. Recently, a new U.S. based is othiazolin-based biocide, n-butyl-1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one is also used as an antimicrobial agent to prevent the spread of germs. Moreover, rising demand for implantable medical devices and increasing burden of cardiovascular diseases is expected to aid the overall market demand over the next eight years.

However, stringent regulations issued by both U.S. and the European Union are anticipated to critically affect the industry over the next eight years.
