The degree of sulfation of chitosan samples obtained from the first time from chitin of Bombyx mori mulberry silkworm pupas was studied by conductometric titration. The extent of chitosan sulfation and a decrease in its molecular
weight were evaluated by IR spectroscopy and viscometry. 相似文献
A simple and rapid method for determining the degree of N‐acetylation (DA) of chitosan by ultraviolet spectrophotometry using double beam equipment is proposed. D ‐Glucosamine (GlcN) hydrochloride and N‐acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) were used as model substances, and chitosan solutions in different solvents were studied. The best results were obtained from 0.1 M HCl solutions, with high reproducibility and in good agreement with those given by conductometric titration, FT‐IR, 1H NMR and elemental analysis.

Biodegradable chitosan hollow microspheres have been fabricated by employing uniform sulfonated polystyrene (PS) particles as templates. The chitosan was adsorbed onto the surface of the sulfonated polystyrene templates through the electrostatic interaction between the sulfonic acid groups on the templates and the amino groups on the chitosan. Subsequently, the adsorbed chitosan was crosslinked by adding glutaraldehyde. After the removal of the sulfonated polystyrene core, chitosan hollow microspheres were obtained. The longer the sulfonation time used, the smaller the size of the hollow particles and the thicker the chitosan wall obtained. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry was used to characterize the component of the microspheres. The morphologies of the PS templates and the chitosan microspheres were observed by transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The controlled release behavior of the chitosan hollow microspheres was also primarily investigated. 相似文献
α,ω-Diaminooligoamides-11 were prepared and their structure was controlled by endgroup titration, elemental analysis, and infrared and 1H NMR spectroscopy. A fundamental study of the reaction between αA,ω diaminooligoamides and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride in DMF showed that a side reaction takes place. This was carefully characterized. When the reaction was carried out in chlorobenzene (on models and on polymers), well-defined compounds were obtained which were characterized by different techniques. 相似文献
Chitosan is a biodegradable natural polymer with great potential for pharmaceutical applications due to its biocompatibility,
high charge density, and non-toxicity. In this study, chitosan microspheres were successfully prepared by an adapted method
of coagulation/dispersion. The degree of deacetylation of chitosan powder was obtained by NMR 1H and FTIR techniques. Chitosan powder and chitosan microspheres were characterized by BET surface area and scanning electron
microscopy (SEM). The interactions among the chitosan microspheres and the vitamins A and E were characterized by FTIR. In order to evaluate
the ability of interaction of vitamin A and vitamin E with the chitosan microspheres, the thermodynamic parameters were followed
by calorimetric titration. Different experimental approaches were applied, such as adsorption isotherms, kinetics and thermodynamics
studies. The obtained results showed that the interactions of chitosan microspheres with the vitamins were spontaneous, enthalpically
and entropically favorable, indicating that the chitosan microspheres can be used with success in the controlled release of
these vitamins. 相似文献
Agar microspheres were prepared by water–oil emulsification and cross‐linked under alkaline condition. The thermoresponsive hydrophobic copolymer, poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide‐co‐lauryl methacrylate‐co‐acrylamide), was grafted on the agar microspheres via atom transfer radical polymerization. The agar microspheres grafted with copolymers were characterized by light microphotography, elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The chain lengths and hydrophobic monomer ratio of the grafting linear polymer had significant effects on the hydrophobicity and adsorption capacity of agar microspheres at different temperatures. The thermoresponsive microspheres were used for separation of proteins and showed binding and release behavior by change of temperatures without change in mobile phase composition. Thus, we suggest thermoresponsive agar microspheres as an alternative separation media for all‐aqueous bioseparations. 相似文献
Pyromellitic dianhydride-modified nanoporous magnetic cellulose–chitosan microspheres (PNMCMs) were designed and synthesized to introduce abundant carboxyl groups onto the basic microstructure. The novel microspheres were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Subsequently, a batch technique was applied to investigate various environmental parameters that could affect the adsorption behavior of the PNMCMs. Due to its nanoporous structure and large quantity of carboxyl groups, the cellulose/chitosan-based bioadsorbent exhibited excellent adsorption performance for removal of Pb(II) ions and methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution, with maximum adsorption capacity of 384.6 and 833.3 mg/g, respectively. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics and isotherms of Pb(II) ions and MB on PNMCMs obeyed the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models, and the rate of adsorption was found to be controlled by film diffusion. Finally, the PNMCMs with adsorbed Pb(II) and MB could be easily regenerated using HCl, retaining removal capacity of almost 89% after six repeated uses. 相似文献
Summary: The formation of polyelectrolyte complexes by interaction between chitosan and maleic acid copolymers as strong/weak dibasic polyanions was investigated. The interaction between the sodium salt of maleic acid copolymers with styrene or vinyl acetate and the chitosan hydrochloride in aqueous solution was followed by potentiometric, conductometric and turbidimetric titration. The effect of the added low molecular salt on the complex formation was also investigated. The precipitated complexes were analyzed by FTIR spectroscopy and TG analysis. Preliminary layer-by-layer deposition experiments were performed to obtain thin films. 相似文献

New methods are suggested for the determination of the charge density of acrylamide/acrylate copolymers.13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to determine the comonomer ratio by comparing the peak intensities of the methine carbon in acrylamide and acrylate monomers. Results were compared with those obtained by conductometric and potentiometric titration and were found to be in good agreement. Differential scanning calorimetry was employed to determine the glass transition temperatures (Tg) of the copolymers. A master curve was established by plottingTg versus charge density of the copolymers previously determined by NMR and conductometric titration. Compositions of poly(acrylamide-co-acrylate) samples can thus be determined by measuring theTg and reading the percent composition directly from the master curve. 相似文献
A vanillin cross-linked chitosan microsphere delivery system was established for stabilization and controlled release of pterostilbene. The prepared microspheres were characterized by SEM images, FT-IR spectra, thermogravimetry, and X-ray diffraction. FT-IR spectra results indicated that chitosan was cross-linked by vanillin successfully. Thermal analysis showed that pterostilbene had been totally incorporated into the microspheres and the encapsulation of pterostilbene decreases the rate of degradation and increases the stability. XRD analysis was conducted to confirm the results of DSC analysis. The release rate of pterostilbene from microspheres in pH 3.6 buffer solution could be up to 58.1 % within 48 h. 相似文献
