Description
Chitosan is a natural-product biopolymer for biochemistry, supplied as a 5 cps grade with CAS number 9012-76-4 and empirical formula [C₆H₁₁NO₄]ₙ. It is characterised by a molar mass of approximately 20,000 g/mol and EG number 618-480-0. The 50 g plastic pack presents this chitosan as a laboratory chemical for biochemical use. Identity is anchored by the repeating formula [C₆H₁₁NO₄]ₙ together with CAS 9012-76-4, so the polymer can be cited consistently in experimental records. The 5 cps viscosity grade and molar mass of ~20,000 g/mol further specify the material beyond the generic name chitosan. This biochemistry-oriented chitosan from manufacturer Carl ROTH is therefore defined by formula, CAS number, EG number 618-480-0, 5 cps grade and the 50 g plastic unit. Natural-product biopolymers of this type are selected when a chitosan matching [C₆H₁₁NO₄]ₙ and CAS 9012-76-4 is required. Laboratories working with natural-product chemicals can specify this 5 cps chitosan for biochemistry in the 50 g plastic pack, with molar mass ~20,000 g/mol and EG number 618-480-0.
