| Product Description | Chitosan offers remarkable biological properties, it has been widely used in drug delivery and tissue engineering applications. Chitosan derivatives have unique properties including biocompatibility, mucoadhesion, non-toxicity, and capability to form gels. Furthermore, they are suitable candidates to manufacture films, tablets, and nanotechnology-based systems which have the possibility for commercial production as well as industrial scale-up. Chemical modification of CS chains using the carboxymethyl moieties will alter the water solubility due to the carboxymethylation degree. |
| Application | The carboxymethyl chitosan derivatives can also interact with cells for applications in cell growth, tissue regeneration, and wound healing. |
| Concentration | Carboxymethylation >/=80% |
| Note | CAS Number: 83512-85-0 |
