Product Description
Product Name: Chitosan
CAS Number: 9012-76-4
Molecular Weight: 50, 000 ~ 400, 000 (Da),
Synonyms: Deacetylated Chitin; Poly(D-glucosamine); Beta-(1, 4)-2-Amino-2-deoxy-D-glucoseSource: Alaska snow crab shellDAC: 85%~95%Viscosity: 20~100 cps, is adjustedWater soluble is availableCarboxymethylchitosan
Application: 1-, Cosmetics, such as emollient cream, shower gel, cleaning cream, mousse, advanced ointment frost, emulsion and colloid cosmetics, etc. 2-, Food, moisturizing and antistaling agent for food, fruits and vegetables. 3-, Drug sustained release agent. 4-, Other industries, such as flocculant for sewage treatment, nontoxic adhesive, auxiliary for dyeing & printing and paper making, etc. 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 shrimp and other crustacean shells with the alkali sodium hydroxide. Chitosan has a number of commercial and possible biomedical uses. It can be used in agriculture as a seed treatment and biopesticide, helping plants to fight off fungal infections. In winemaking it can be used as a fining agent, also helping to prevent spoilage. In industry, it can be used in a self-healing polyurethane paint coating. In medicine, it may be useful in bandages to reduce bleeding and as an antibacterial agent; It can also be used to help deliver drugs through the skin. More controversially, chitosan has been asserted to have use in limiting fat absorption, which would make it useful for dieting, but there is evidence against this. Other uses of chitosan that have been researched include use as a soluble dietary fiber. UsageAgricultural and horticultural useThe agricultural and horticultural uses for chitosan, primarily for plant defense and yield increase, are based on how this glucosamine polymer influences the biochemistry and molecular biology of the plant cell. The cellular targets are the plasma membrane and nuclear chromatin. Subsequent changes occur in cell membranes, chromatin, DNA, calcium, MAP Kinase, oxidative burst, reactive oxygen species, callose pathogenesis-related (PR) genes and phytoalexins. Natural biocontrol and elicitorIn agriculture, chitosan is used primarily as a natural seed treatment and plant growth enhancer, and as an ecologically friendly biopesticide substance that boosts the innate ability of plants to defend themselves against fungal infections. The natural biocontrol active ingredients, chitin/chitosan, are found in the shells of crustaceans, such as lobsters, crabs, and shrimp, and many other organisms, including insects and fungi. It is one of the most abundant biodegradable materials in the world. Application: The product can mostly applied in foodstuff, agricultural, horticultural, textile and cigarette Depending on the different viscosity, owing to the characters naturally activating capability, it could reduce heavy metal, improve the immunity and abase fat for loss weight.
