KTS® MB

Activated preparation made from chitosan and fumaric acid
for better management of micro-organisms during ageing

CHARACTERISTICS:

KTS® MB is made up of highly deacetylated chitosan, ensuring the number of amine functions throughout the molecule and their protonation in an acid medium.

Thanks to a specific production process, KTS® MB combines the effectiveness of activated chitosan by optimising its surface charges and that of fumaric acid for better management of lactic acid bacteria.

OENOLOGICAL GOALS:

• Controls the development of undesirable microorganisms (Brettanomyces, other indigenous yeasts, bacteria).
• Prevents the start of spontaneous MLF
• Delays the onset of MLF
• Alternative to the use of sulphites, but does not control oxidation mechanisms.
• Not consumed by contamination yeasts
