Spray Drying of Chitosan Acid Salts: Process Development, Scaling Up and Physicochemical Material Characterization

Spray Drying of Chitosan Acid Salts: Process Development, Scaling Up and Physicochemical Material Characterization

We investigated a spray drying process for preparing water-soluble salts of high molecular weight chitosan (CH) intended for pharmaceutical excipient applications. CH was derived from chitin of marine lobster origin (<i>Panulirus argus</i>). The effects of organic acid (acetic or lactic...
