Chitosan（Cat No.:R023214）is a biopolymer derived from chitin, primarily sourced from crustacean shells. Known for its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and antimicrobial properties, chitosan is widely used in medical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural fields. It enhances wound healing, acts as a drug delivery agent, and serves as a dietary supplement due to its potential to support weight management and lower cholesterol. Chitosan’s ability to form films and gels makes it valuable in food preservation and packaging. Its versatility and low toxicity have also led to its use in environmental applications, such as water purification.
