摘要:
Disclosed are methods of producing modified microcrystalline chitosan. Chitosan in aqueous solution is degraded enzymatically, hydrolytically or oxidatively. The chitosan solution is then alkalized with agitation using aqueous hydroxides and/or their salts to attain a pH not lower than 7.0. The precipitated modified microcrystalline chitosan is highly pure and may be concentrated and dried according to known methods. Methods according to the invention also include methods by which an aqueous solution of chitosan is first alkalized using hydroxides and/or their salts to a pH not lower than 7.0. Then the precipitated microcrystalline chitosan is subjected to enzymatic or oxidative degradation to achieve a desired average molecular weight and polydispersity. The product is highly pure and may be concentrated and dried according to known methods.

摘要:
Chitosan-calcium complexes of calcium (II) ions with a gel of a chitosan salt, containing not less than 0.5 wt % of the polymer with an average molecular weight not less than 10 kD, a polydispersity degree not lower than 2.0 and a deacetylation degree at least 65%. The complex is characterized by pH not higher than 6.9 and a calcium Ca (II) ions content not less than 0.1 wt % on chitosan. Methods to prepare chitosan-calcium complexes use a gel of a chitosan salt, containing not less than 0.5 wt % of the polymer. Calcium salts are introduced in the amount of at least 0.1 wt % Ca (II) on chitosan weight. The mixture is next homogenized and reacted at 10° C. during a time not shorter than 1 minute. Methods of producing a gel of chitosan salts involves subjecting a chitosan with the concentration of at least 0.5 wt % in an aqueous acidic solution to a controlled enzymatic, hydrolytic or oxidative degradation.
