SELT Marine Group Natagar

Selt Marine Group Natagar is extracted from red seaweeds(Gracilaria verrucosa, Gelidium Sesquipedale). Agar is a mixture of a neutral, dominating polysaccharide called “Agarose” and a charged polymer called “Agaropectin”. The agarose is composed of (1-4) linked 3,6-anhydro L – galactose alternating with (1-3) linked D – galactose. A charged agaropectin has the same repeating unit as agarose but weakly substituted by sulfate, methyl, and pyruvic acid aceta.
