Antibacterial Activity of Chitooligosaccharides
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 2008 The aim of this study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of chitooligosaccharide, prepared by partial acid hydrolysis of chitosan, and of an aminoglycosylated derivative, prepared by reductive alkylation of the chitooligosaccharide, against E. coli and S. aureus.

Chitooligosaccharides for wound healing biomaterials engineering
Materials Science and Engineering: C, 2020 Chitooligosaccharides (CHOS) are oligomers of β-(1-4) linked N-acetylglucosamine and D-glucosamine that are produced from chitin or chitosan using different enzymatic or chemical methods. CHOS are water-soluble and non-cytotoxic with diverse bioactivities such as antibacterial, anti-inflammation, anti-obesity, anti-tumor and antioxidant.
