Performance Comparison of Commercial Enzymes for The Synthesis of Glucosamine by Chitosan Hydrolysis in The Presence of Surfactant

Glucosamine has attracted much attention due to its potential biological, pharmaceutical and nutritional effects. In this research, glucosamine was prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis of low molecule weight chitosan with nonionic surfactant (Tween 80) addition. The change in reducing sugar content was...
