Pullulan is a natural water-soluble polysaccharide manufactured by culturing microorganisms in a medium containing syrup.
Arcofeliz PU-10 is a low-endotoxin pullulan produced by purification with a newly developed endotoxin removal materials (non-GMP).
Pullulan is a polysaccharide*1, and it is characterized by unique properties such as high adhesion, sticking force, coating ability, and lubricating performance.
It can be considered for use as a raw material for medical and pharmaceutical materials.
We can provide samples for your R&D projects.
