Abstract
New type of chitosan deriertives was synthesised by graft copolymerization of mono(2-methacryloyl oxyethyl) acid phosphate into chitosan. The reaction conditions showing the highest percentage of grafting were an initiator concentration of $3.5{\times}10^{-3}M$, monomer concentration of 0.19 M, and reaction temperature of $40^{\circ}C$, while rate of grafting showed same value after elapsing 4hours of reaction time. The antifungal activity of chitosan depending on content of free amine and kind of monomer was examined against Candida albicans, Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton uiolaceum by shake flask method. The pH value of buffer solution to show the highest antifungal activity was 5.75, and the selectivity of mold strain was observed.
키토산에 음이온계 수용성의 함인계 모노머인 mono(2-methacryloy1 oxyethyl) acid phosphate를 그라프트공중합시켜 새로운 유도체를 합성하였다. 그라프트공중합의 최적 그라프트율은 개시제농도 $3.5{\times}10^{-3}M$, 모노머농도 0.19 M, 반응온도 $40^{\circ}C$에서 가장 높은 값을 나타내었고, 반응시간 4시간 이후로는 거의 같은 값을 나타내었다. 그라프트공중합체와 chitosan의 유리아민의 함량에 따른 항균성을 Candida albicans, Trichophyton rubrum 및 Trichophyton violaceum에 대하여 shake flask법으로 조사한 결과, pH 5.75에서 가장 우수한 항균성능이 발현되고, 곰팡이 균류에 대한 선택성이 나타남을 확인할 수 있었다.
