As chitin from ChitiNor AS from the start will be sold in the market and not used for own glucosamine production, delivery of the pharmaceutical product Glucomed/Flexove does not depend on chitin from ChitiNor. Timing for start of commercial production of chitin does not affect time for launch of Glucomed/Flexove in counties where the company has partner and marketing authorization.
