Measurement of the degree of deacetylation in chitosan films by FTIR, 1H NMR and UV spectrophotometry

The chitosan films were prepared from shrimp, squid, and crab to corroborate that regardless of the source of the chitosan, it was possible to measure the degree of deacetylation. In this work, the degree of deacetylation of chitosan was evaluated via UV, FTIR and 1H NMR spectrophotometry methodolog...
