PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF CHITIN ISOLATED FROM SHELL OF INDUSTRIAL CRABS OF VARIOUS SPECIES
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2010, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Differential thermal analysis was carried out over the range of –190 ÷ 400 °С on six samples of chitin from shells of industrial crabs of various species. All samples of the chitin have several relaxation transitions of endothermal character (g1-, g2-, β- and γ-).

NEW HOMOGENEOUS BLENDS OF DIBUTYRYLCHITIN AND ALIPHATIC POLYESTERS
The results of physical modification of dibutyrylchitin (DBCH) for the purpose of improvement of its imperfect mechanical properties are presented. Thus, the novel blends of DBCH and biodegradable aliphatic copolymer der...
ENZYMATIC PREPARATIONS FROM Mucor MOULDS AND THEIR APPLICATION IN OLIGOAMINOSACCHARIDES PRODUCTION
A method of chitosan hydrolysis catalyzed by intracellular chitosanolytic enzymes produced by strains of Mucor circinelloides and Mucor racemosus was developed within the scope of presented study. Hydrolysis of the biopo...
SALICYLIC ACID RELEASE FROM CHITOSAN PELLETS COATED WITH POLYLACTIDE
The aim of the study was to prepare a bi-polymer drug carrier composed of chitosan pellets (CS) coated with polylactide shell (PLA) providing prolonged model drug – salicylic acid (SA) release into phosphate buffer of pH...
SURFACE PROPERTIES OF CHITOSAN ACETATE, POLYACRYLAMIDE AND THEIR MIXTURES
The surface properties of chitosan acetate (ChA), polyacrylamide (PAM) and ChA/PAM mixtures have been investigated by the tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) and monitored by contact angle measurements. Chitosan i...
INVESTIGATION OF PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SOLID DISPERSIONS IN THE PRESENCE POLYMERIC CARRIER-CHITOSAN
The BCS class II includes drugs with low solubility and high permeability. Fenofibrate is an example of this class drugs. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of chitosan on the saturation solubility of fen...
