Price List For Ultra-Pure Mycelium Chitosan
Chitosan from Aspergillus niger is derived from fungal cell walls and typically has a lower
molecular weight and higher degree of deacetylation than animal-derived chitosan, making it
more soluble in water. It makes consistent quality possible due to the controlled fungal growth process.
Fungal chitosan is valued for its biocompatibility, film-forming properties, and antimicrobial
activity, due to its positive charge. Its non-animal origin makes it suitable for applications where animal-derived products
are avoided.The prices below are quoted FOB Lacq, France in Euros per kg and vary according to the deacetylation
degree, molecular weight and volume. The prices below are offered for orders below 200kg.

bioactive. Its uniform insect origin ensures consistent quality, enhanced antimicrobial
properties, and better compatibility with biochemical processes due to its distinct molecular
structure and more amorphous form. The prices below are FOB, Lacq, France in Euro per kg and vary according to the deacetylation
degree, molecular weight, and volume. The prices below are offered for orders below 200kg.
