Several sea sources for chitin have been investigated, and the chitin content and crystallographic polymorph of the extracted chitin determined. Deacetylation of the chitin was carried out and the physicochemical characteristics of the resulting chitosan studied. The in¯uence of the reaction paramet
Chitosan derivatives such as N,N,N-trimethylated chitosan (TMC) are currently being investigated for the delivery of drugs, vaccines and genes. However, the influence of the extent of N-acetylation of these polymers on their enzymatic degradability and biological properties is unknown. In this study
