Double Valorization for a Discard—α-Chitin and Calcium Lactate Production from the Crab <i>Polybius henslowii</i> Using a Deep Eutectic Solvent Approach

<i>Polybius henslowii</i>, an abundant yet unexploited species of swimming crab, was investigated as a potential source of α-chitin and calcium lactate using deep eutectic solvents (DES) as extracting solvents. Choline chloride–malonic acid (CCMA) and choline chloride–lactic acid (CCLA)...
