In our process we use, as raw material, Shrimp shell (which is considered as an industrial waste of the Shrimp mexican industry) to generate a valuable product called Chitosan from the chitin found in this material. This process is achieved using different fermentations with bacteria; where, the behavior of these bacteria is controlled by induced temperature changes, guaranteeing no chemical use in the process.</p> | + | <p align="justify">The product we market is the result of a biological process that we designed using a genetically modified organism, which is productive, cost effective and waste reductive.
