• Abstract

  Chitosan membranes prepared by the dissolution of the polymer followed by freeze-drying will be cross-linked with genipine to impart to them chemical stability and adequate mechanical properties. The cross-linked membranes will be characterized in terms of chemical structure, degree of crosslinking, swelling rate, morphological features and mechanical properties. Also, the susceptibility …

• Abstract

  Chitosan is a polysaccharide with applicability in many areas due to its high biocompatibility and biodegradability. In some of these applications, chitosan interaction occurs directly with cells, mainly through electrostatic interactions between positive charges of the polyelectrolyte and the "polar head" of the negatively charged phospholipids of the membrane. Even though the electrost…

• Abstract

  The project aims the development of more efficient methods for the extraction of chitin from the biomass and for its conversion to chitosan by carrying out the chitin deacetylation in alkaline medium. It proposes an investigation of new methods aiming to improve the efficiency and the reproducibility of the above mentioned processes. Thus, the use of high intensity ultrasound irradiation …
