Water-soluble <i>N</i>-substituted Chitosan Derivative

Tóm tắt

Many water-soluble N-substituted chitosan derivatives have been prepared having the typical -NH-CH₂- linkage. Both the Michael reaction and alkylation with monochloroacetic acid at pH 8 - 8.5 offer relatively simple ways for their synthesis.
