چکیده مقاله
Chitin and chitosan are considerably versatile and
promising biomaterials. The deacetylated chitin derivative
chitosan is a useful and interesting bioactive
polymer. Despite its biodegradability, it has many
reactive amino side groups, which offer possibilities
of chemical modifications, formation of a large vari-
[1]
ety of beneficial derivatives, which are commercially
available or can be made available via graft reactions
and ionic interactions. This study looks at the contemporary
research in chitin and chitosan towards
structure, properties, and applications in various industrial
and biomedical fields.
