ELECTROCHEMICAL METHODS FOR THE PRESERVATION OF CRUSTACEOUS WASTES FROM SHELLFISH PROCESSING
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2013, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
The developed environmentally safe electrochemical methods for the preservation of crustaceous wastes from shellfish processing can be used both at sea and ashore. This technology makes possible long-term storage of crustaceous waste at unnormalized positive temperatures with simultaneous shell deproteinization. Due to the mild exposure conditions the electrochemical methods allow to preserve the high quality of valuable components (chitin, proteins, lipids, carotinoids and others) and to carry out comprehensive processing. The preservation of expired crustaceous waste with increased original bacterial content was found possible.

CHARACTERISATION OF CHITOSAN AFTER CROSS-LINKING BY TANNIC ACID
Chitosan is widely applied in biomedical and cosmetic fields. For this reason, there is a need to modify this biopolymer to achieve new properties of chitosan-based materials. The properties of chitosan can be modified b...
SYNTHESIS OF CHITOSAN AND CARBOXYMETHYL CHITOSAN HYDROGELS BY ELECTRON BEAM IRRADIATION
Solutions of chitosan (CS) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) were subjected to irradiation by electron beam in presence of a crosslinking agent (poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate - PEGDA) in order to produce carboxymethyl...
INVESTIGATION OF FENOFIBRATE SOLUBILITY IN THE PRESENCE OF CHITOSAN
Fenofibrate is an active substance which is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, but it is characterized by limited solubility. Due to a wide spectrum of its pharmacological activity, it would be beneficial to...
STUDY OF THE INFLUENCE OV UV RADIATION ON BIODEGRADABLE BLENDS BASED ON CHITOSAN AND STARCH
The biodegradable blends of chitosan and starch with different component ratios were prepared by casting method. Obtained thin films were UV-irradiated (λ = 254 nm) and changes in chemical structure were monitored using...
THE ROLE OF OLIGOCHITOSANS IN AKT KINASE REGULATION
Among characteristic properties of cancers, there is their increased glycolytic activity.Contrary to normal cells, neoplastic cells use anaerobic glycolysis, even when a sufficient amount of oxygen is available. The inte...
