Additional Names:
N;N;N-Trimethylchitosan
CAS Number:
52349-26-5
Extra Details:
Trimethyl chitosan (N;N;N-Trimethylchitosan) is a multifunctional polymer and a derivative of Chitosan (HY-B2144A). Trimethyl chitosan targets the absorption enhancing proteins of tight junctions of intestinal and mucosal epithelial cells; induces tight junction protein rearrangement; and increases intercellular permeability. Trimethyl chitosan can stimulate the activity of promoting transmembrane transport of hydrophilic drugs (such as peptides and proteins) and can be used for drug delivery and synthesis of nanoparticles[1][2].
