Chitosan oligosaccharide is a kind of oligosaccharide product with polymerization degree between 2~20, molecular weight ≤3200Da, which is degraded by chitosan by special biological enzyme technology (there are also reports on the use of chemical degradation and microwave degradation technology), and it is a low-molecular-weight product with better water-solubility, large functional role and high biological activity. It has many unique functions such as higher solubility, fully soluble in water, easily absorbed and utilized by living organisms, which is 14 times of chitosan.
Chitosan oligosaccharide is the only positively charged cationic alkaline amino oligosaccharide in nature, and is an animal cellulose.
Chitosan oligosaccharide is a small molecule oligosaccharide with amino acid degraded from chitosan derived from shrimp and crab shells, and is a sugar chain with polymerization degree of 2~20.
