Chitosan is a natural fibrous material derived from chitin. Chitin is a substance that is produced in the outer shell of shellfish such as lobsters, crabs, and shrimps. Shrimps are considered to be a major source of chitosan as they contain about 25% to 40% of chitin content. Besides shell fish and crustaceans, certain varieties of fungi have also been known to produce low amounts of chitin in their cell walls. However, the lack of an optimal procedure for extraction of chitin on a commercial scale from fungi makes it a less used source for obtaining chitosan. Chitosan is a rich fiber source and is increasingly incorporated into dietary supplements for promoting weight loss. It is a fibrous material which blocks the absorption of cholesterol and dietary fats and hence is used in medicines to cure diseases such as high cholesterol, obesity, and crohn's disease. Chitosan is also directly applied on the gums to alleviate inflammation of the gums.

Chitosan is a natural material extracted from the outer skeletons of shells of shrimps, crabs, and lobsters. It is recognized as a versatile biomaterial due to its non-toxicity, low allergenicity, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. Owing to these properties, it is used in a wide range of applications such as food & beverages, water treatment, medical & pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and agrochemicals. Due to its tangible property of adsorption, chitosan is has found a profound place in the water treatment application to adsorb metals, iron, toxic substances, and other impurities from the wastewater. The application of chitosan for water treatment is not only effective but also economical and environment friendly. Chitosan's properties, such as antimicrobial activity, bioactivity, anti-oxidative activity, make it beneficial in several medical and pharmaceutical applications. It is generally used in wound ointments and for coating medical devices. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used as a drug delivery agent and in contact lenses. In the food & beverage industry, it is used as a preservative, dietary supplement, and as an anti-cholesterol additive. Chitosan has also been used in the cosmetic industry in the hair and skincare products.
