Description
Chitosan is a biopolymer derived from crustacean shells, known for its unique carbohydrate structure and wide application across scientific disciplines. This product is a high-quality Chitosan with CAS number 9012-76-4, characterized by a viscosity range of 5–20 mPa.s at a concentration of 0.5% in 0.5% acetic acid at 20°C. It is widely used in laboratories for its versatility and functional properties, making it an essential material for various research and development activities. Its biodegradable and non-toxic nature, along with solubility in acidic solutions, ensures its applicability in both chemical and biological experiments.
Chitosan is preferred due to its stable viscosity, gel-forming ability, and antimicrobial properties. Its capacity to bind metal ions and exhibit antioxidant activity further enhances its utility in biokimia and environmental research. The measured viscosity makes it ideal for applications requiring controlled viscosity, such as the preparation of suspensions, emulsions, or coatings. These properties make it a reliable and versatile material for scientific research, especially in Indonesia where it is used in diverse laboratory settings.
In Indonesian laboratories, Chitosan is commonly used in pharmaceutical, biomedical, and environmental research. Its biocompatibility and functional characteristics make it a preferred choice for developing drug delivery systems, wound healing materials, and pollution control technologies. Its role in supporting scientific innovation in these fields is significant, contributing to both academic and industrial research efforts.
