Evaluating the Effects of Vacuum Tumbling with Chitosan Nanoparticles and Water-Soluble Chitosan on the Shelf Life of Cryogenically Frozen Shrimp

Chitosan (CH) is a biopolymer obtained from the deacetylation of chitin, a polysaccharide present in the exoskeleton of crustaceans and cell walls of fungi.
