Our main product is chitosan, a natural fiber product with multiple applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, water treatment, textile finishing, food, cosmetics, pulp and paper, photography and tissue engineering. The product we market is the result of a biological production process based on genetically modified organisms which is productive, cost effective and waste reductive. In our process, chitin extracted from shrimp shells waste undergoes a process of demineralization, deproteinization and deacetilatyion by the action of two bacteria. The behavior of these bacteria is controlled by induced temperature changes, guaranteeing no chemical use in the process.</p> | Our main product is chitosan, a natural fiber product with multiple applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, water treatment, textile finishing, food, cosmetics, pulp and paper, photography and tissue engineering.
