Vegan Chitosan

Description

Specification:

Properties: 

Chitosan is a linear polysaccharide composed of randomly distributed β-( 1→4 )-linked D-glucosamine (deacetylated unit) and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (acetylated unit). It is made by treating the chitin shells of shrimp and other crustaceans and cell walls of fungi (Mushroom, Agaricus Bisporus, Aspergillus Niger) with an alkaline substance, like sodium hydroxide.

Application:

Chitin and chitosan are natural biopolymers that have various properties such as antimicrobial activity, hemostatic agent, metal-chelating, molecular affinity, and wound-healing agent. For a wide range of uses of these polymers, different modifications have been studied by different researchers. Electrospun fibers of chitin and chitosan could therefore be of great interest in various application fields such as tissue engineering, biomedical, cosmetics, and many industrial applications, such as wastewater treatment.
Chitosan has various effects such as improving immunity, activation of cells, preventing cancer, lowering blood pressure, lowering blood pressure, anti-aging and regulating body environment. It can be used in medicine, health care and food fields.
In the field of environmental protection, chitosan can be used in sewage treatment, protein recovery, and water purification. In functional materials, the chitosan can be used in film material, carriers, adsorbents, fibers, medical materials and the like. In the field of light textile, chitosan can be used for fabric finishing, health underwear and paper additives. In the field of agriculture, it can be applied to feed additives, seed treatment, soil improvement, and preservation of fruit. In the field of tobacco, tobacco Chitosan is an excellent sheet gel and can also improve the taste with being non-toxic and odorless upon burning.
