Preparation, Characterization, and Bio Evaluation of Fatty N- Hexadecanyl Chitosan Derivatives for Biomedical Applications

Preparation, Characterization, and Bio Evaluation of Fatty N- Hexadecanyl Chitosan Derivatives for Biomedical Applications

The objective of this study was to improve the antibacterial activities of chitosan via N-alkyl substitution using 1-bromohexadecane. Mono and di substitution (Mono-NHD-Ch and Di-NHD-Ch) were prepared and characterized using FT-IR, HNMR, TGA, DSC, and SEM. Elemental analysis shows an increase in the...
