Chitosan Powder, Packaging Type : Bags Or Containers

Chitosan is a close derivative of chitin, the second-most prevalent biopolymer in the world.
The exterior skeleton of shellfish, such as crab, lobster, and shrimp, contains a sugar called chitosan. It is employed in the production of drugs and as medication. A fibre protein called chitosan may limit the amount of fat and cholesterol that the body absorbs from diet. When administered to wounds, it also facilitates blood clotting.
The primary structural element of the exoskeletons of crustaceans, such as crabs and shrimp, as well as the cell walls of fungus, is chitin, which naturally exists as organised macrofibrils. Chitin is often transformed into its deacetylated derivative, chitosan, for use in biomedical applications.
Deacetylation-
The process of removing acetyl groups from chitin and replacing them with reactive amino groups is known as “deacetylation.”
Due to its high hydrogen bonding, chitin exhibits low reactivity and solubility in most solvents in its natural state. This can be overcome by deacetylation.
