CHITOCEL

Adsorbing adjuvant based on chitosan

The image has the only illustrative purpose and it is purely indicative; it may not fully reflect the characteristics of the product.

CHITOCEL is a product based on chitosan, a natural polysaccharide of fungal origin (Aspergillus niger) allowing to reduce and, in some cases, to eliminate the unwanted microbial load in wine; it is active against acetic and lactic bacteria, yeasts in general and Brettanomyces. Chitosan acts by degrading the cell wall of yeasts and bacteria present in the medium, causing their death. It thus plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of contamination caused by lactic bacteria, facilitating the work in the cellar; it has an inhibiting action towards acetic bacteria, helping to obtain wines with low levels of volatile acidity. The wines obtained after the addition of CHITOCEL are therefore clean to the nose and free from olfactory deviations of bacterial origin.
