Metallic ions if used for a prolonged time may lead to toxicity. Alternatively chitin,a natural polysaccharide found in nature, is utilized. It is found in fungi, crabs, mushrooms,squids, octopus, and many other living organisms. Chitin has similar structure to cellulose but its deacetylated derivate chitosan has amine groups that provide potential antibacterial properties along with a number of other advantages. Chitin in its natural form is found in three different structural forms,namely α,β,and γ.The β-chitin and chitosan are mostly found in the exoskeleton of squids. Loligo and Humboldt squids were studied. It is anticipated that Humboldt chitin is more effective in serving as antibacterial material and can be utilized for wound care. Differences in steriochemical structure were observed among β-chitin structures obtained and amine group's presences were found along with ability of materials to swell.展开更多
