Clostridium Vaccine (Animal Health) Market Size is estimated to
reach $653.6 million by 2027 and it is poised to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% over the
forecast period of 2022-2027. The genus Clostridium is composed of a large
spectrum of Gram-positive, mesophilic and anaerobic species. It is found in the
soil and intestines of humans and animals. Vaccination plays a key role in the
protection of animals against clostridial diseases. The vaccinations are widely
utilized for a variety of species, including chicken, swine, ovine, bovine,
caprine and other animals. Animals are regularly immunized to protect them
from clostridial infections. To treat clostridial illnesses, a variety of
vaccinations, including single and combination vaccines, are available.
Toxoids, bacterins, or combinations of bacterins and toxoids make up the
combination vaccines.
Vaccines are made up by utilizing the natural capability of
biowarfare found in bacteria, as they produce antibiotics and other toxins to
kill closely related strains to reduce competition and that toxic protein known
as ‘bacteriocins’. Without vaccination
alteration in gut microbiota in animal lead to fatal infection and an increased
rate of mortality. To prevent mortality of livestock, to reduce chances of
infections and to minimize loss vaccination for clostridium if preferred. Owing
to such a need for vaccination global key market players continuously working
for developing new treatments for biowarfare to reduce clostridium infections
in bovine, ovine, caprine, Swine and Poultry. For instance, in March 2022, the vaccine for Pfizer Clostrodial Difficile in the phase 3 clover trial
showed a strong potential effect in reducing the duration and severity of the disease based on secondary endpoints. Such growing research and innovation and rising
demand for biodefence vaccines for animal health and to reduce the chance of

can be further segmented into Swine Pneumonia, Avian Influenza, Rabies,
Coccidiosis, Brucellosis and Canine Distemper. The Swine Pneumonia segment
held a dominant market share in the year 2021. The swine are mostly susceptible
to infectious disease and most susceptible to swine fever & swine
pneumonia as it is highly contagious. According to a research paper published in
National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), in December 2021, swine
pneumonia is found in 73.1% of pigs from a total of 108 pigs. Such a high prevalence
of Swine pneumonia and the positive impact of the Clostridium Vaccine on swine
pneumonia drive the growth of the Clostridium Vaccine (Animal Health) Market
Share.
However, Avian Influenza is estimated
to grow with the fastest CAGR rate of 5.1% over the forecast period 2022-2027.
Avian influenza commonly known as bird flu is consist large family of influenza
viruses that affect humans and birds and mostly seen in birds. In July 2022, the
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported 40.09 M birds in 36 U.S. states
to be infected with highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI). Also, as per the
World Health Organisation (WHO) and as of 31 March 2022, a total of 239 cases of
human infection with avian influenza A(H5N1) virus have been reported from four
countries within the Western Pacific Region since January 2003. Such high cases
of infections in birds create a threat to the poultry industry and surge demand

Clostridium Vaccine (Animal Health) Market Drivers:
High Rate of Clostridium Infection and Mortality in Animals Drive Market Growth.
Clostridium bacteria are commonly found in the intestine
of many organisms but any alteration of gut microbiota leads to fatal infection
from this organism. It is mostly reported in chicken, swine, ovine, bovine, caprine and other animals. The
presence of clostridium is associated with diarrhea in infected horses. Recently,
C. difficile has been associated with the so-called duodenitis-proximal
jejunitis (DPJ) syndrome, a sporadic gastrointestinal process for which a
specific cause is largely unknown. As per a research paper published by National
Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in 2020, Clostridium perfringens have
the potential to produce up to 16 different toxins. the large clostridial
cytotoxins consist of single peptide chains averaging about 250,000 MW. Such a combination
of different types of toxins and high risk of mortality in chicken, swine, ovine, bovine,
caprine and other animals surge demand for veterinary Clostridium Vaccine and
propel the growth of the Clostridium Vaccine (Animal Health) Industry over the forecast period 2022-2027.
The Broad Range of Coverage for Various Disease from Clostridium Vaccine is Driving the Market Growth.
The Clostridium Vaccine is capable to provide immunity against diseases
such as tetanus, black disease, pulpy kidney (enterotoxaemia) and blackleg. For
instance, enterotoxaemia is caused by Clostridium perfringens type D. In
October 2021, the Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Services
(AH&VS), Bengaluru reported the death of 35 sheep and an investigation
found a strain of the Clostridium Perfringens in the gastrointestinal tract. According
to the research paper published in the National Center for Biotechnology
