Structural and Physicochemical Characterization of Chitosan Obtained by UAE and Its Effect on the Growth Inhibition of <i>Pythium ultimum</i>

Structural and Physicochemical Characterization of Chitosan Obtained by UAE and Its Effect on the Growth Inhibition of <i>Pythium ultimum</i>

The objective of this work was the recovery of chitosan by ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) from white shrimp (<i>Litopenaeus vannamei</i>) chitin, and the physicochemical and structural characterization of the obtained biopolymer, as well as its antimicrobial effect on <i>Pyth...
