DETAILS

Product Description

Chitosan (CAS 9012-76-4) is a naturally derived polysaccharide obtained through the deacetylation of chitin, a biopolymer found in the shells of crustaceans such as shrimp and crabs. Known for its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and non-toxic nature, chitosan is widely used in biomedical, pharmaceutical, food, and environmental industries.

This high-purity Chitosan Standard (≥95%) is specifically produced for method validation, instrument calibration, and quality control (QC). It is ideal for laboratories conducting carbohydrate, biopolymer, and bioactive compound testing, ensuring accurate, traceable, and reproducible results.

  • Naturally occurring biopolymer for research and industrial applications.
  • Critical for HPLC, LC-MS, GC, and carbohydrate analysis workflows.
  • High purity (≥95%) for precision and consistency.
  • Stable at room temperature for convenient handling and storage.
  • Produced under ISO/IEC 17025 and GMP-compliant conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why is a certified Chitosan Standard important for testing?

Certified reference standards ensure traceability, accuracy, and compliance, while non-certified chitosan may contain impurities, leading to:

  • Inaccurate calibration in HPLC or LC-MS methods.

  • Inconsistent QC data during production.

  • Failed regulatory audits and method validation issues.

Which industries use Chitosan Standard most frequently?
  • Pharmaceuticals: Drug delivery systems, wound healing materials, excipient QC.

  • Food & Nutraceuticals: Quality testing for dietary supplements and food preservatives.

  • Environmental Engineering: Water treatment and purification systems.

  • Industrial QC: Bulk production of biopolymer-based materials.
