Mitigating crop pathogens with chitosan
Resistance is the number one threat to humanity. Our Chitosan AG (Agriculture Grade) Chitosan oligosaccharide-hydrochloride has a DDA of 98%, a Molecular Weight of 3kDa and a Zeta Potential of +70mV. It is available at https://chitosanglobal.com Chitosan with this charge density kills crop pathogens through electrostatic action. In order to conserve chitosan, and limit applications to a maximum 2x - 3x per season, we are creating tunable coatings to release chitosan to the surface over a 45-90 period.
