Natural polysaccharides such as cellulose, \u003cbr\u003e hemicellulose, and starch are among the candidates from natural resources for biomass\u003cbr\u003e polysaccharide products including bioplastics. Although several kinds of neutral or anionic\u003cbr\u003e polysaccharides such as chitin, alginic acid, hyaluronic acid, heparin, and chondroitin sulfate\u003cbr\u003e exist in nature, natural cationic polysaccharides are quite limited. Chitin is second only to\u003cbr\u003e cellulose as the most natural abundant polysaccharide in the world. Chitosan, the product\u003cbr\u003e from the N-deacetylatation of chitin, appears to be the only natural cationic polysaccharide.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, chitin and chitosan due to their unique properties are expected to continue to offer\u003cbr\u003e a vast number of possible applications for not only chemical or industrial use, but also\u003cbr\u003e biomedicine. The research history on chitins, one of the most major and abundant natural\u003cbr\u003e polysaccharides on earth, started around 1970. Since the 1980s, chitin and chitosan research\u003cbr\u003e (including D-glucosamine, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, and their oligomers) has progressed\u003cbr\u003e significantly over several stages in both fundamental research and industrial fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBook details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNLS9783038421306\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eISBN 13\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e9783038421306\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eISBN 10\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e3038421308\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eHitoshi Sashiwa\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNew\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eBinding Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eMdpi AG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eYear published\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e2015-12-31\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eNumber of pages\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e484\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eCover note\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eBook picture is for illustrative purposes only, actual binding, cover or edition may vary.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Mdpi AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67723876139253,"sku":"NLS9783038421306","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/8632\/8821\/files\/3038421308.jpg?v=1792172777","url":"https:\/\/arbiyas.com\/products\/advances-in-marine-chitin-and-chitosan-by-hitoshi-sashiwa-nls9783038421306","provider":"Arbiyas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
