Core Differences – Molecular Size Dictates Function
 |
G-Teck Chitosan: Derived from deacetylated chitin (found in crustacean shells), with a high molecular weight(with a degree of deacetylation of up to 90%) |
Key Traits: Forms physical barriers, enhances soil structure, and activates plant defense mechanisms.
Primary Uses: Soil remediation, seed coating, and antifungal treatments.
 |
G-Teck Chitosan Oligosaccharid(COS):Enzymatically or chemically degraded Chitosan, with a low molecular weight (<3,000 Da). |
Key Traits: Easily absorbed by plants, directly regulates gene expression, and boosts stress resistance.
Primary Uses: Drought/salt tolerance, root stimulation, and fruit quality enhancement.
Chitosan excels in “external protection”:
Soil remediation: Binds heavy metals in contaminated soil.
Disease prevention: Creates antimicrobial barriers for seeds/leaves.
Cost-effective: Ideal for large-scale crops or soil restoration.
COS specializes in “internal activation”:
Stress resistance: Enhances drought/salt tolerance by upregulating antioxidant enzymes.
Yield/quality boost: Promotes root growth, flower retention, and nutrient accumulation in fruits.
Premium performance: Best for high-value crops (e.g., greenhouse vegetables, ornamental plants).
