Alpha Chitin manufactures a bioproduced and chemically refined material. Chitin is a polysaccharide and a bio-based polymer obtained from various biomasses. Chitosan is a refined chitin.
Chitosan is biodegradable, bioactive, biocompatible and non-toxic. Its anti-microbial, anti-fungal and anti-oxidant activity make it useful in several biotechnological applications in human health.
Alpha Chitin, offers an alternative, sustainable and
safe for industrialists, chitin and chitosans with a biomass
insect (Hermetia Illucens), Krill and fungal alternative. These bioresources make it possible to guarantee traceability throughout our production process, control of the quality of the bioresource and a purification process that makes it possible to be eco-efficient compared to current chitin / chitosans production practices.
Finally, this global mastery of bio-technological processes by Alpha Chitin allows almost absolute repeatability of production batches, guaranteeing medical and pharmacology manufacturers a linear production without the vagaries of variation in the quality of the molecule.
