Physicochemical and Antibacterial Properties of Chitosan Extracted from Waste Shrimp Shells
This research aims to study the production of chitosan from shrimp shell (Litopenaeus vannamei) of waste origin using two chemical methodologies involving demineralization, deproteinization, and the degree of deacetylation. The evaluation of the quality of chitosan from waste shrimp shells includes...
