High density chitosan

Scientific name: β-1,4-poly-D-glucosamine
Molecular formula : (C6H11NO4)n
CAS No. 9012-76-4

Application

health care product;
medicine ingredient;
medical products;
food stuff;
nutrition food;

High density chitosan has good dense structure, and bulk density of ordinary chitosan is about 0.2-0.4 g/ml, but the bulk density of high density chitosan is 0.4-0.8 g/ml. So the same type of capsule can contain much quantity of chitosan.

For example, one 0# capsule can contain 400mg-500mg of High density chitosan, but same 0# capsule can only contain 200-300mg ordinary chitosan.


Chemical structure


          

Raw material
From deep-sea crab legs, such as snow crab legs, and etc.
