Determination of the degree of deacetylation of chitin and chitosan by X-ray powder diffraction.
A new method to determine the degree of deacetylation (DD) of alpha-chitin and chitosan in the range of 17-94% DD using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) is proposed. The results were calibrated using (1)H NMR spectroscopy for chitosan and FTIR for chitin, in comparison with the potentiometric titration method. The results showed a good linear correlation between the CrI020 from XRD and the calibr...
متن کاملCan we make a difference?
Can we make a difference? If I had a pound for every time I have heard someone tell us that we can make a difference I think I could personally end world poverty. I have a copy of a cartoon in which someone says, ‘What difference can one person make?’ In the next frame two or three more speech bubbles have appeared asking the same question. In the final frame there are a plethora of similar spe...
متن کاملFermented and enzymatic production of chitin/chitosan oligosaccharides by extracellular chitinases from Bacillus cereus TKU027.
Two chitinases, Chi I and Chi II, were purified from the culture supernatant of Bacillus cereus TKU027 with shrimp head powder (SHP) as the sole carbon/nitrogen source. The molecular masses of Chi I and Chi II determined using SDS-PAGE were approximately 65kDa and 63kDa, respectively. Chi I toward various surfactants showed high stability, such as SDS, Tween 20, Tween 40 and Triton X-100, and t...
متن کاملInvestigating chitin deacetylation and chitosan hydrolysis during vegetative growth in Magnaporthe oryzae
Chitin deacetylation results in the formation of chitosan, a polymer of β1,4-linked glucosamine. Chitosan is known to have important functions in the cell walls of a number of fungal species, but its role during hyphal growth has not yet been investigated. In this study, we have characterized the role of chitin deacetylation during vegetative hyphal growth in the filamentous phytopathogen Magna...
