Our product high density chitosan is derived from chitin by heating it with a chemical solution. It can be taken like acidophiles, FOS, and other supplements to speed the transit of foods through the digestive system and to promote the growth of beneficial live bacteria in the intestines. Our special grade chitosan comes with a bulk density of 0.92gm/ml. Used in special treatments and is produced in capsule form.

We offer carboxymethyl chitosan, higher derivation of chitosan. It is made from the reaction of chitin and chloride, acetic acid in alkalinity circumstance. Our product has higher improved physical and chemical capability and is entirely 100% saluted in water.
