[Preparation and isolation of chitin and chitosan from Kronopolites svenhedini (Verhoeff)].
Chitin was isolated from Kronopolites svenhedini and deacetylated to produce the derivative chitosan. The yield for chitin was 9%, and chitosan yield 57.4% and 77.5% respectively. After purification, their structures have been determined by spectroscopic methods.
