Study on Preparation of Water-Soluble Chitosan with Varying Molecular Weights and Its Antioxidant Activity

The preparation of water-soluble chitosan (WSC) with various molecular weights by gamma Co-60 irradiation of chitosan solution (5%) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (1%) combined with acetylated reaction was carried out. The average molecular weight (Mw) of chitosan was measured by gel permeatio...
