Studies on Chitin I. Enzymic Degradation of Chitin and Chitin Esters [PDF]

Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1954
A study has been made O'f the enzymic degradation of chitin and the sodium salt of chitin sulphuric acid by a chitinase prepared from the intestinal tract of the snail, Helix aspersa. It is shown that, in a citrate-phosphate buffer, the pH for optimum activity is 4.8 for both substrates.

Imobilisasi Asam Humat Pada Kitin Dan Aplikasinya Sebagai Adsorben Cr(III)

Indonesian Journal of Chemical Research, 2018
Immobilization of humic acid on chitin has been conducted and applied to the adsorption of Cr(III). The humic acid was isolated using NaOH 0.1 M, while chitin was isolated by deproteination of crab shells by using NaOH 3.5 % (w/v) and followed by ...

Suppression of Chitin-Triggered Immunity by a New Fungal Chitin-Binding Effector Resulting from Alternative Splicing of a Chitin Deacetylase Gene

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Phytopathogenic fungi have evolved mechanisms to manipulate plant defences, such as chitin-triggered immunity, a plant defensive response based on the recognition of chitin oligomers by plant-specific receptors.

Temperature and time-dependent self-assembly and gelation behavior of chitin in aqueous KOH/urea solution

Giant, 2020
Chitin is the most abundant natural glycosaminoglycan that is derived from marine crustaceans and has enormous potential in biomedical applications because of its high similarity in chemical structure to the component of extracellular matrix.

Chitin nanofiber elucidates the elicitor activity of polymeric chitin in plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Chitin, an N-acetyl-D-glucosamine polymer, is a component of fungal cell walls and a microbe/pathogen-associated molecular pattern that elicits plant defense responses.
