Technical & procurement detail
What Chitosan is and what it does+
Chitosan is a deacetylated chitin polysaccharide normally derived from crustacean shells; it carries a shellfish allergen declaration unless a fungal-source grade is specified.
Deacetylation degree, viscosity and source all matter+
Degree of deacetylation and molecular weight determine solubility and viscosity, and the source material determines the allergen declaration. State the target viscosity, the deacetylation level and whether a non-crustacean source is required.
Documentation and specification+
Assay, particle size, solvent residue, microbiological limits and heavy-metal limits differ between producers and grades. Allzone confirms the applicable specification with the supplier before quoting and shares the technical data sheet, safety data sheet and certificate of analysis for the exact material offered, so the values you evaluate are the values you receive.
