The quaternary ammonium salts of chitosan are water soluble derivatives which keep the
promise for real life applications in a large realm of biomedical fields, such as antimicrobial …

Chitosan, a versatile hydrophilic polysaccharide derived from chitin, has a broad
antimicrobial spectrum to which gram-negative, gram-positive bacteria and fungi are highly …

Chitosan, which is derived from a deacetylation reaction of chitin, has attractive antimicrobial
activity. However, chitosan applications as a biocide are only effective in acidic medium due …

Chitosan, a polymer obtained by deacetylation of chitin is widely studied for its
pharmaceutical and nonpharmaceutical applications. Recommendations about uses of this …

We explore the role of crystallinity and inter‐or intramolecular forces in chitosan for its
solubility in water and demonstrate the expansion of its solubility to a wider pH range. Due to …

N-trimethyl chitosan of two quaternization degrees, DQ= 20 and 80mol% and labeled as
TMC20 and TMC80, were synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR. Polyelectrolyte …

There is considerable interest in incorporating stabilized vitamins into biopolymeric
nanoparticles, especially in the development of carriers and active systems for …

N, N, N-trimethyl chitosan (TMC) was synthesized through the N-methylation of chitosan
(CHT) and characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Polyelectrolyte complexes …

The corrosion performance of carbon steel was tested in four polymeric ionic liquids (PILs)
that differed only in the fatty acid linked to the chitosan (CS) amine group. The …

Recently, increasing attention has been paid to water‐soluble derivatives of chitosan at its
applications. The chemical characteristics and the antimicrobial properties of these salts can …
