Effects of Surface-Deacetylated Chitin Nanofibers in an Experimental Model of Hypercholesterolemia

Effects of Surface-Deacetylated Chitin Nanofibers in an Experimental Model of Hypercholesterolemia

This study evaluated the effects of oral administration of surface-deacetylated chitin nanofibers (SDACNFs) on hypercholesterolemia using an experimental model. All rats were fed a high cholesterol diet with 1% w/w cholesterol and 0.5% w/w cholic acid for 28 days. Rats were divided equally into fo...
