Synthesis, Characterization and In Vitro Evaluation of a Novel Glycol Chitosan-EDTA Conjugate to Inhibit Aminopeptidase-Mediated Degradation of Thymopoietin Oligopeptides

In this study, a novel conjugate consisting of glycol chitosan (GCS) and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) was synthesized and characterized in terms of conjugation and heavy metal ion chelating capacity. Moreover, its potential application as a metalloenzyme inhibitor was evaluated with thre...
