CHITOSAN PREPARATION WITH MULTISTAGE DEACETYLATION OF CHITIN AND INVESTIGATION OF ITS PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES

Study of chitosan prepared with chitin deacetylation by multistage alkali treatments has been done. Chitin was extracted from Lampung white shrimp's (Litophenaeus vannamei) shell. The FTIR spectroscopy was used to determine deacetylation degree of chitin/chitosan. Viscometry was used to determi...
