Preparation, characterization, and antioxidant activity of water-soluble oligochitosan

The preparation of oligochitosan through the heterogeneous degradation of chitosan/H2O2 combined with the homogeneous reaction of chitosan with H2O2 under gamma radiation was studied. Oligochitosan with weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of less than 10 kDa could be efficiently prepared by gamma C...
