Antioxidant Activity of N-Carboxymethyl Chitosan Oligosaccharides

Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2008
Three N-carboxymethyl chitosan oligosaccharides (N-CMCOSs) with different degrees of substitution (NA: 0.28, NB: 0.41, and NC: 0.54, respectively) were prepared by the control of the amount of glyoxylic acid in the etherification process of chitosan oligosaccharide (COS).

Asymmetric wettable polycaprolactone-chitosan/chitosan oligosaccharide nanofibrous membrane as antibacterial dressings

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2023
Wound infection and inflammation hinder the process of wound healing and bother human beings chronically. As a naturally degradable macromolecule, chitosan (CS) has been widely used in antibacterial wound dressings. However, the antibacterial property of chitosan is inhibited by its water insolubility.

Cellobiohydrolases Produce Different Oligosaccharides from Chitosan

Biomacromolecules, 2016
Chito-oligosaccharides (COSs) are bioactive molecules with interesting characteristics; however, their exploitation is still restricted due to limited amounts accessible with current production strategies. Here we present a strategy for the production of COSs based on hydrolysis of chitosan by using readily available glycosidases.

Microencapsulation of norfloxacin in chitosan/chitosan oligosaccharides and its application in shrimp culture

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2016
Norfloxacin chitosan/chitosan oligosaccharide microcapsules (NCCM) were prepared by emulsion-chemical crosslinking method. The characteristics of obtained microcapsules were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and release experiments.

The effect of chitosan oligosaccharides on bread staling

Journal of Cereal Science, 2010
Abstract The aim of this work was to investigate the effects of chitosan oligosaccharides and chitosan on the rate of staling and properties of bread crumb and crust. Rates of crumb firming varied with storage time. The possible mechanisms including prevention of amylose–lipid complexation, acceleration of dehydration from both starch and gluten ...

Sustained release of ATP encapsulated in chitosan oligosaccharide nanoparticles

International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2010
The chemical cross-linked chitosan oligosaccharide (CSO) nanoparticles containing ATP/CSO ionic complex nano-components were prepared using combination techniques of W/O miniemulsion, chemical cross-linking and ionic complexation. The resulted nanoparticles had about 110 nm diameter and 20 mV surface zeta potential.

Chitosan oligosaccharide: Biological activities and potential therapeutic applications

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2017
Chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) is an oligomer of β-(1➔4)-linked d-glucosamine. COS can be prepared from the deacetylation and hydrolysis of chitin, which is commonly found in the exoskeletons of arthropods and insects and the cell walls of fungi. COS is water soluble, non-cytotoxic, readily absorbed through the intestine and mainly excreted in the ...
