Key Developments

Partnerships, Collaborations, And Agreements

  • In March 2021, VESTA clinical trial was conducted by collaboration with University of Brasilia, University of Campinas, Hospital da Região Leste (HRL), Hospital Universitário de Brasília (HUB/UnB), Hospital Regional da Asa Norte (HRAN), and Centro de Pesquisa em Biotecnologia Ltda. The clinical trials were conducted in order to measure the effectiveness of a novel respirator equipped with chitosan nanoparticles in order to effectively reduce the incidence of Covid-19 infection in healthcare professionals.

Product Launches and Product Expansions

  • In March 2020, Novochizol which is a unique chitosan nanoparticle technology that is used in order to deliver and confine anti-COVID-19 drug to the lungs of ill patients has been launched by Bioavanta-Bosti which is a leading chitosan nanoparticle research company.

Global Chitosan Market Overview

Chitosan is a polymer made from the shells of lobster, crab, shrimp, and crayfish that belongs to the class of amino polysaccharides. It is produced using an alkaline substance, such as caustic soda, to deacetylate the chitin shells or exoskeletons of insects, crustaceans, and therefore the cell walls of fungus. Each retail staple varies in its chitosan content, making it an important component in commercial manufacture. Chitosan is said to be mostly produced by shrimp.

The growth in waste from the seafood industry, an increase in chitosan applications, and government assistance for waste utilisation are the main factors driving the global chitosan market. Additionally, growing use of Chitofelx's in hemostatic dressing. Additionally, a surge in demand for cosmetics made from bio-based materials is fueling market expansion on a global scale.

In the event that there is a lack of marine debris, an increase in the number of new sources for commercial chitosan, such as fungi, snails, and other mollusks, may take the place of the traditional sources, such as crab, shrimp. The abundant availability of fungal waste in agriculture and the synthetic creation of fungus using subpar nutrients by straightforward chemical processes present profitable potential for the growth of the chitosan market.

Key Players

The major players in the market are Primex EHF, Advanced Biopolymers as, Bio21 Co., Ltd., G.T.C. Bio Corporation, Taizhou City Fengrun Biochemical Co., Heppe Medical Chitosan GmbH, Vietnam Food, Kitozyme S.A., Agratech, Ltd. and Zhejiang Golden-Shell Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
