PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF CHITIN FROM CHITIN-PROTEIN COMPLEX OF VARIOUS STAGES OF MOLTING CYCLE OF KAMTCHATSKY CRAB (PARALITHODES CAMTCHATICUS) SHELL
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2009, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
The behavior of the chitin separated from the chitin-protein complex is more unique. The dependences of temperatures of its physical transitions on the stage of molting cycle are more clear and of an extremal character. Sample No 5 has the extremal values of physicochemical characteristics at the intermolting stage. Just at this stage of development the crabs are useful for industrial catching

APPLICATION OF CHITOSAN IN THE FORMULATION OF METHYL CELLULOSE-BASED HYDROGELS
The aim of this work was to study the properties of methylcellulose hydrogels with supplements containing chitosan and 1% hydrocortisone. Depending on the composition of the substrate, gels are characterised by a variety...
ISOLATION, MOLECULAR CLONING AND CHARACTERISATION OF TWO GENES CODING CHITIN DEACETYLASE FROM MUCOR CIRCINELLOIDES IBT-83
Chitosan is a linear N-deacetylated derivative of chitin, soluble in acetic solutions. The deacetylation of chitin can be achieved enzymatically using chitin deacetylase (ChDa) (EC 3.5.1.41), which hydrolyses the N-aceta...
CYCLIC SORPTION AND DESORPTION OF REACTIVE DYES ONTO CHITOSAN BEADS
The study was undertaken to analyze cyclic sorption and desorption of four reactive dyes: Reactive Yellow 84, Reactive Red 11, Reactive Black 5 and Reactive Black 8. onto chitosan beads. In all experimental series, dye a...
CHITOSAN/POLY(VINYL ALCOHOL) HYDROGELS AS CONTROLLED DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS
In order to achieve hydrogel and drug release profiles, a comprehensive knowledge of the types, properties and syntheses of hydrogel polymer networks are needed. For this reason, a natural biopolymer hydrogel based on ch...
MECHANISM OF WATER DIFFUSION INTO NONCROSSLINKED AND IONICALLY CROSSLINKED CHITOSAN MEMBRANES
Ionically crosslinked chitosan membranes were prepared and their swelling behaviour was analysed. Low‑molecular pentasodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) and/or high‑molecular sodium alginate (NaAlg) were used as ionic crosslin...
