Chitosanase

Product description:Chitosan is the name given to the polymers that are obtained by the deacetylation of chitin (poly-b-1,4-D-N-acetylglucosamine). In industrial-scale procedures, chitin is produced by treating seafood waste, especially shells from crustaceans (shrimps, crabs, lobsters, krills, etc).
The most popular technique for obtaining chitosan is alkaline deacetylation of chitin: this involves boiling chitin in concentrated alkali (50% w/v) for several hours. This will yield chitosan with a degree of acetylation between 20-30%: the most popular commercial available form of chitosan. In such a chitosan, the acetyl groups are uniformly distributed along the polymer chain. This is in contrast with the chitosan of similar degree of acetylation, but isolated from fungal cell walls in which the acetyl residues are grouped into clusters.
Special chemical treatment is needed to obtain completely de-acetylated forms of chitosan.
Chitosan is a family of cellulose, cellulose and cellulose animals only difference is that glucose carbon chain in the second of its structure is different, it is a hydroxy cellulose plants, animals, chitin is a cellulose acetyl amino, chitosan (Chitosan) is an amino, an amino simple, but it's connected to the chemical chain are B-1-4 linked polysaccharide
This cellulose can rely on our human lysozyme to break down. Because amino polysaccharides, amino harmful bacteria in the cell surface polysaccharide also has substance, lysozyme can be dissolved, some of the harmful cell surface polysaccharides. It is the use of this feature, chitosan linear chain macromolecules into the body after the lysozyme thought it was a lot of bacteria, it will work, the results of the cut section of a polysaccharide, and each section is a six-carbon sugar body pulled up short-chain cellulose, or it is  polysaccharides .
