Chitin, from crab carapace (powder),biomedical research grade

Catalog No.: A33167
Biochemical Assay Reagent
Chitin, derived from crab carapace, is a long-chain polymer of N-acetylglucosamine featuring β-(1-4) linkages. This biopolymer serves as a biochemical assay reagent and is noted for its ability to inhibit the activation of NF-κB p65, as well as alter its translocation to the nucleus. Chitin also interacts with the cell wall of Candida species, exhibiting antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. It is valuable for research into gastric ulcers and candidiasis, contributing to the understanding of related pathophysiological processes.
