Spider Chitin: An Ultrafast Microwave-Assisted Method for Chitin Isolation from <i>Caribena versicolor</i> Spider Molt Cuticle

Spider Chitin: An Ultrafast Microwave-Assisted Method for Chitin Isolation from <i>Caribena versicolor</i> Spider Molt Cuticle

Chitin, as a fundamental polysaccharide in invertebrate skeletons, continues to be actively investigated, especially with respect to new sources and the development of effective methods for its extraction. Recent attention has been focused on marine crustaceans and sponges; however, the potential of...
