Description

Application

Chitin from shrimp shells is suitable for analysis of chitinase. It is a polysaccharide composed of N-acetyl-D-glucomasine that can also be used for the manufacture of glucosamine and chitosan.

Chitin from shrimp shells, a long-chain polymer of a β-1,4 linked N-acetylglucosamine residues, may be used to study its physicochemical properties and role in the formation of arthropod exoskeletons. It may be used to identify and characterize chitinase(s) and chitin deacetylase(s) and as a control to study the structure of chitins from other species. It may be used in chitin asthma and allergy research. Chitin may be used as a viscosity/thickening agent or binder.

Remarque sur l'analyse

Requires purification prior to use as a substrate for chitinase.
