Chitosan powder is commonly referred to as Chitosan powder, which is also called chitosan, deacetylated chitin, deacylated chitin, soluble chitin, and soluble chitin. Almost insoluble in water, but soluble in organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid and naphthenic acid, as well as dilute inorganic acids. Chitosan is a white or off-white translucent flake solid with a pearly luster. Tasteless, non-toxic and easy to degrade, it is a rare natural cationic polyelectrolyte.
A polysaccharide obtained by hydrolysis of a strong base or enzymolysis to remove the acetyl group from the chitin glycogroup. Chitosan is a biocompatible, bacterial-resistant, biodegradable polyelectrolyte that has a wide range of biomedical and industrial applications. Its chemical properties and low toxicity can be used as a component of drugs, in gene transfer systems, as a biodegradable membrane, and as a skeleton in tissue engineering.
Functions of Chitosan powder
Chitosan powder is used as a preservative and thickener.Application of Chitosan powder
Biomedical Field: This is one of the most promising application areas of chitosan;
Food Industry: Chitosan is a natural, safe and multifunctional food additive, which is widely used in the food industry:
Plant growth promoter: Chitosan can promote plant growth, increase yield, and enhance plant resistance (such as disease resistance, insect resistance, drought resistance, cold resistance, etc.). Its mechanism of action includes: activating the plant immune system, promoting nutrient absorption, improving the soil microenvironment, etc.
Environmental protection field:
Water treatment: Chitosan has good adsorption and flocculation properties, and can adsorb pollutants such as heavy metal ions, dyes, oil pollution, suspended solids, etc., and is used for industrial wastewater treatment and drinking water purification
Product method of Chitosan powder
Chitosan powder is prepared by using chitosan in the shell of low animals and plants widely existing in nature, such as arthropods (shrimp, crab), as raw material, and deacetylated by alkali and heating.
