Abstract

Chitin is a natural biopolymer that, with its derivative chitosan, has been represented as a biomaterial with considerable potential in wide ranging medical applications. But there are some limitations in using chitosan as attained, for instance, the problem of water solubility$^1$. In order to use chitosan in various applications (e.g. drug carrier), chemical modifications are often necessary$^2$. (omitted)
