whole hydrolysis process includes two stages: acylation and deacylation. The first step is a proton transfer to form a zwitterionic form (i.e. Cys-S-/His-H+ion-pair), and the second step is the nucleophilic attack on the carboxyl carbon of the substrate accompanied with the dissociation of 4-nitroaniline. The deacylation stage includes the nucleophilic attack of a water molecule on the carboxyl carbon of the substrate and dissociation between the carboxyl carbon of the substrate and the sulfhydryl sulfur of Cys25 side chain. The acylation is rate-limiting

the enzymolysis process is analyzed using pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models and the experiment data are more consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The Haldane kinetic model adequately describes the dynamic behavior of the chitosan enzymolysis by papain. When the initial chitosan concentration is above 8.0 g/l, the papain is overloaded and exhibits significant inhibition
