Description

Chitosan Oligosaccharide Mixture

Chitosan Oligosaccharide Mixture is a low molecular weight polysaccharide material produced through controlled depolymerization of Chitosan, resulting in a mixture of short-chain Chitosan oligomers. It is used in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, biomedical, and research applications where enhanced solubility, biological activity, and formulation flexibility are required.
Chitosan Oligosaccharide Mixture appears as a white to pale yellow powder that is freely soluble in water, forming clear to slightly opalescent solutions. The reduced degree of polymerization provides lower viscosity and improved bioavailability compared to high molecular weight Chitosan, while retaining cationic functionality and biocompatibility.
In pharmaceutical and research applications, Chitosan Oligosaccharide Mixture is used in:
• Oral and topical drug delivery systems
• Nutraceutical formulations supporting immune and gut health
• Antimicrobial and bioactive delivery platforms
• Wound care and tissue regeneration research
• Encapsulation and stabilization of sensitive active ingredients
• Studies involving cellular uptake and polysaccharide bioactivity
Chitosan Oligosaccharide Mixture functions by enhancing interaction with biological membranes and negatively charged biomolecules, supporting improved permeability, bioadhesion, and biological response. Its low molecular weight profile allows efficient processing and incorporation into aqueous formulations.
CarboMer supplies Chitosan Oligosaccharide Mixture with defined molecular weight ranges, consistent oligomer composition, and high purity suitable for regulated pharmaceutical research and advanced biomedical applications.
