Application

Application Comment Organism
analysis the enzyme can be used for production of chitin particles with only 1% deacetylated chitin which is still rigid and insoluble in acidic environment, but shows highly increased ovalbumin binding, chitosan as well is a good material for column chromatography showing no hydrogel formation Rhizopus arrhizus
