The key trend in the chiller market is the growing popularity of R32 models. R32 is a type of refrigerant, which offers enhanced operational efficiency as compared to the R22 refrigerant. R32 chillers consume about 10.0% less energy and also help in reducing greenhouse gas emissions due to their extremely low global warming potential as compared to R410A and R22 chillers.

It is caused due to the increased absorption of infrared energy by the atmosphere, resulting in high temperatures. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration reported that in 2017, the average global temperature was 0.90C higher than the average temperature during 1951–1980.

One of the major drivers for the growth of the chiller market is the increasing temperatures across the globe. The excessive use of chlorofluorocarbons and burning of fossil fuels lead to the accumulation of greenhouse gases, such as methane and carbon dioxide, in the environment, which leads to the phenomenon of global warming.

Johnson Controls International PLC, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., Ingersoll-Rand plc, United Technologies Corporation, Daikin Industries Ltd., Gree Electric Appliances, Inc. of Zhuhai, Zamil Air Conditioners, Thermax Limited, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Petra Engineering Industries Co, S.K.M Air Conditioning LLC, and Danfoss A/S are some the key players in the global chiller market.

Automotive and Infrastructure Sectors to Facilitate Growth in Asia-Pacific (APAC) Paints and Coatings Domain

Increasing construction activities, expanding automotive domain, and rapid industrialization are the key factors influencing the APAC paints and coatings market growth. Paints and coatings are mastic or liquid compositions that provide resistance to the substrate from abrasion and corrosion by forming a layer that converts into a solid film. Increasing investments in construction projects, ranging from retail centers and offices to hospitals and hotels, are leading to the growth of the paints and coatings domain in APAC. Similarly, paints and coatings have found their use in the automotive sector for both protection and aesthetic purposes. 




Advantages such as reduced application time, increased resistance against moisture, and smoother texture and finish make water-based coatings a preferred choice among end-users. On top of this, these last longer in poorly ventilated spaces and confined environments. Hence, owing to the beneficial properties of such materials, the APAC paints and coating niche would experience prosperity during the forecast period.

In terms of application, the APAC paints and coatings market is categorized into architectural and decorative, industrial, and marine. During the forecast period, the volume sales of paintings and coatings are expected to witness the highest growth for industrial application, with a CAGR of 7.5%. Increasing demand for paints and coatings solutions from industries such as consumer goods, automotive, and machinery manufacturing is driving the market growth.


Countries such as China, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia have witnessed rapid economic transformation in the past few decades. Majority of these nations have a large and rapidly growing middle-class population. These factors make these developing countries a suitable paint and coatings market. As these countries are home to fast-growing construction and automotive industry, an increase in the consumption of paint and coatings is expected from these. Hence, developing countries with a high economic growth rate will continue to bolster the market of paints and coatings in APAC in the coming years.

What are the Various Uses of Wound Care Products?

In 2014, approximately 15,775 fire-related injuries were reported in the U.S., as per the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Furthermore, the World Health Organization (WHO), in its 2014 publication, stated that around 1 million people in India suffer from moderate to severe burns yearly. This high and rising number of burn cases is driving the demand for various products to treat the resulting wounds. Burns caused by chemicals, radiation, heat, electricity, and friction lead to severe loss of tissue, blood vessels, and skin. Treating these wounds properly is mandatory, and this is done by the use of wound care products.

Wound care products comprise advanced wound care products (AWP), wound closure products (WCP), and traditional wound care products (TWP). These products accelerate the wound healing process by providing thermal insulation, absorbing exudates, allowing gaseous exchange, and preventing the entry of infectious agents. They are used to treat chronic wounds, ulcers, and surgical wounds. In 2015, the global wound care market attained a size of $24,482.9 million, and it is predicted to witness a CAGR of 6.7% in the near future. Among different products, AWPs  are used the most and will continue to be popular in the coming years. AWPs are further divided into advanced wound dressings (AWD), wound therapy devices (WTD), and active wound care products (AWC). The requirement for these products is growing rapidly because they help speed up the wound healing process by regulating the temperature, oxygen flow, and moisture around the injured skin and tissue.

A large number of surgical wounds are treated using different wound care products, and since the volume of surgeries worldwide is increasing rapidly, the requirement for products to treat the wounds is also surging. Some of the reasons for this rise in the volume of surgeries are the growing prevalence of chronic diseases (such as cancer, heart diseases, respiratory diseases, and stroke) and growing inclination of people on aesthetics. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2012, about 117 million people in the U.S. were suffering from at least one chronic health condition. In addition to this, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons stated that in 2012, around 14.6 million cosmetic surgeries were carried out in the U.S. These procedures are performed by making incisions on the body, thereby leading to wound formation. Wound care products then are used for cleaning and treating the areas of the body affected during surgical procedures.

Since there has been a mention of chronic diseases, it is important to point out that the geriatric population is more susceptible to them. Due to old age, their body functions are weakened, which results in a longer period for a wound to heal in comparison to younger adults. The growing aged population thus is leading to an increasing demand for wound care products. The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA)’s report on the global aging population stated that the worldwide share of people aged 60 years or above was 11.7% in 2013, and it is predicted to reach 21.1% by the end of 2050. So, as their numbers, so will the total cases of wounds, and in turn, the demand for products to treat them.

Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 Beta (GSK-3β) Inhibitors Therapeutics - Pipeline Analysis 2019




Glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK-3β)
is an attractive target for the treatment of psychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Many GSK-3β inhibitors have been developed for the treatment of different central nervous system disorders. But, for an effective therapy, high IC50 values should be avoided and ATP-competition should be reduced during enzyme-compound binding. Studies suggested that ATP non-competitive GSK-3 inhibitors such covalent inhibitors and allosteric modulators are emerging as a promising approach with better efficacy and safety.
Image result for Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 Beta
Despite of many GSK-3β inhibitors in clinical studies, many challenges still remains. In a clinical study, certain adverse events caused by off-target activity of GSK-3β inhibitors were determined after the screening of compounds that bind to the ATP-competitive binding site conserved across a broad range of kinases. Thus, there is an urgent need of development of GSK-3β inhibitors that can selectively target individual pathways and differentiate between the non-phosphorylated and phosphorylated GSK-3β.
