Nitrogen sorption as a tool for the characterisation of polysaccharide aerogels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Supercritically dried aerogels of several polysaccharides (chitin, chitosan, alginate, alginic acid, k- carrageenan, and agar) have been characterised by physisorption ofN2. Surface areas as high as 570m2 g−1 have been measured.

Studies on Chitin VI. The Nature of ?- and ?-Chitins [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1965
Enzymic digestion, acidic hydrolysis, deuterium exchange, infrared absorption spectra, and differential thermal analysis of chitins show that not only do the structures of <x- and ~-chitins differ but that differences occur within the <x-chitins and within the ~-chitins. The crystalline structure within an <x-chitin varies and about 30% of the

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

open access: yesIndonesian 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

open access: yesJournal 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.

KNR4, a suppressor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cwh mutants, is involved in the transcriptional control of chitin synthase genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The KNR4 gene, originally isolated by complementation of a K9 killer-toxinresistant mutant displaying reduced levels of both 1,3-b-glucan and 1,3-bglucan synthase activity, was recloned from a YCp50 genomic library as a suppressor of Saccharomyces ...

Determination of Carbohydrate Composition in Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor L.) Larvae and Characterization of Mealworm Chitin and Chitosan

open access: yesFoods, 2021
Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor L.) is a classic edible insect with high nutritional value for substituting meats from vertebrates. While interest in mealworms has increased, the determination of carbohydrate constituents of mealworms has been overlooked ...

Polymer organogelation with chitin and chitin nanocrystals

open access: yesRSC Advances, 2015
In this paper, we show that biodegradable and biocompatible organogels can be formed with chitin as the filler material and triglycerides as the continuous hydrophobic phase.

Chitin Synthesis and Degradation in Crustaceans: A Genomic View and Application

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2021
Chitin is among the most important components of the crustacean cuticular exoskeleton and intestinal peritrophic matrix. With the progress of genomics and sequencing technology, a large number of gene sequences related to chitin metabolism have been ...
