The effect of chitosan on enzymatic activities and on bioactive compounds was characterized during germination at $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 days to search for a method to produce a germinated black rice. The germination rate was reduced by the addition of lactate and chitosan. The rotting rate was greatly decreased by chitosan, suggesting that the addition of chitosan into a germination solution might be an effective method for controlling fungal contamination during the germination of cereals. The addition of 100 and 200 ppm chitosan increased $\alpha$-amylase activity after 7 days by up to 152 % and 197 %, respectively. The activities of $\beta$-amylase and $\beta$-glucosidase were lower with 200 ppm chitosan than in distilled water and 100 ppm lactate. The amount of total soluble phenolics and total flavonoids decreased rapidly for four days and thereafter remained constant until the seventh day. The antioxidant activity of germinated black rice, in terms of hydrogen-donating activity, increased slowly and did not correspond to the changes of total soluble phenolics and total flavonoids. The amount of phytic acid was reduced by the addition of 200 ppm chitosan compared to distilled water, indicating that chitosan could be used as an elicitor for the increase of phytase activity during the germination of black rice.

Environmentally and human compatible chitosan were pretreated on cotton fabrics which were then dyed with 100% persimmon juice. The chitosan concentration was 1% and the chitosan types were high molecular weight chitosan (1980cps), low molecular weight chitosan (18첸), chitosan oligomer and water soluble chitosan. The properties of the fabric surfaces, the dyeabilities, the color fastnesses, the antibacterial activities, the strengths, the elongations and the drape stiffnesses were evaluated. The properties of the chitosanpretreated, persimmon juice-dyed cotton fabrics (CLP) were compared to those of the untreated (CN), chitosan treated (CL) and persimmon juice-dyed fabrics (CP). The results were as follows. The fibers extruded from the surface of CN decreased on CP. The air between the fibers within CN were substituted by chitosan solution or persimmon juiceand decreased within CLP according to SEM observations. The effects of chitosan treatment, the chitosan molecular weights and the degrees of deacetylation of chitosan on the dyeabilities of the persimmon juice-dyed cotton fabric were not distinct. The curing after chitosan padding improved the dyeabilities of CLP compare to noncuring. The strengths of CP decreased and those of CL increased, compared to those of CN. The strengths of CLP were greater than those of CP. The elogations of CP and CL were greater than those of CN. The strengths and elongations of CLP were greater than those of CN. The chitosan treatments improved the strengths but not the elongations. The drape stiffnesses of CL, CP and CLP were greater than those of CN. The antibacterial activites of chitosan pretreated, persimmon juice-dyed cotton fabrics against Staphylococcus aureus were increased by more than 98% by persimmon juice.

Chitosan is a key compound of shrimp waste. It is a biopolymer, which is widely used in the field of medical Sciences. Chitosan-TPP (Tripolyphosphate) complex has more or less similar physical properties as Ca-alginate which can be used for the production of synthetic seeds. Possibility of the use of Chitosan-TPP complex as a matrix for encapsulation of somatic embryos was tested against the Ca-alginate complex (2.5w/v Na-alginate, 100mM CaCl2 at pH 5.5). Somatic embryos grown in the induction medium (IM) were drawn into the viscous chitosan solution (1%) and mixed well by inverting the tube carefully. Then the mixture was dropped at regular intervals into the tripolyphosphate (TPP) solution kept on a magnetic stirrer for bead formation. Synthetic seeds formed were washed and transferred into the incubation medium, then allowed either to air-dry or freeze-dry.(중략)

Solution Properties of polyelectrolytic biopolymers such as chitosen, pectin, alginate and etc. are significantly influenced by molecular weight and salt concentrations. The effect of NaCI concentration on the hydrodynamic properties of chitosan in dilute region was investigated for chitosans of varying molecular weight. Intrinsic vicosity([η]) of citosans with 5 different molecular weight was determined by glass capillary viscometer, and the viscosity average molecular weight was calculated using Mark-Houwink equation. Intrinsic viscosity decreased with increasing NaCI concentration for all chitosan samples, and it was proportional to the logarithmic NaCI concentration, i.e.,[η]∝log{TEX}$(C_{NaCl})^{$\alpha$}${/TEX}. Decreasing trend of[η] with NaCI concentration became more pronounced with increasing molecular weight. It was also found that the a values, indicating {TEX}$C_{NaCl}${/TEX} dependence of[η], were linearly correlated with the logarithmic molecular weight({TEX}$R^{2}${/TEX}=0.980). The chain stiffness parameters(B) were calculated by B=S./{TEX}$([η]_{0.1})^{1.32}${/TEX}, in which S was obtained from slope of [η] va {TEX}$I^{-1/2}${/TEX}. The B values of chitosan samples were determined to be 0.113~0071 with a average of 0.09.

카이토산은 무독성 천연착화제의 일종으로 방사성스트론튬의 마우스체내축적을 감소시킨다고 알려져 왔다. 스트론튬은 칼슘이온과 비슷한 화학적 특성을 가지고 있으며, hydroxyapatite에 쉽게 결합하여 제거하기가 어렵다. 본 실험에서는 카이토산과 칼슘이온을 처리하였을 경우 방사성스트론튬의 체외배출 효과를 비교해 보았다. 1% 카이토산 혹은 칼슘을 일반식이와 혼합하여 섭취시킨 후 방사성스트론튬을 관을 통해 구강으로 주입하였고, 방사성스트론튬 오염후 1% 카이토산 혹은 칼슘용액, 그리고 1% 카이토산과 칼슘을 혼합한 용액을 각각 구강주사하였다. 대조군은 카이토산 또는 칼슘을 처리하지 않았으며, 각각의 실험군은 10마리씩 7일간 관찰하였다. 모든 실험군에서 대조군에 비해 변과 오줌 등을 통한 스트론튬의 체외배출이 높게 나타났으며 (p<0.01), 골조직 등의 침착율도 낮게 나타났다 (p<0.01). 칼슘 투여군과 카이토산 투여군 간에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 카이토산 단독투여 군과 칼슘과 카이토산 동시 투여군 사이에는 방사성스트론튬 배설율에 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로, 칼슘은 카이토산과 동일하게 입으로 오염된 방사성스트론튬 제거에 효과가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 가교막을 poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide)(PPO)에 브롬화반응을 통해 제조한 Br-PPO를 주사슬로 성공적으로 제조하였고, 키토산과 4차암모늄이 포함된 키토산을 가교제로 사용하였다. 제조된 가교막은 트리메틸아민 용액에 함침하여 후처리를 진행하였다. 그리고 가교도는 가교제 비율을 이용하여 조절하였다. 이렇게 제조된 A-PPO + chitosan 가교막과 A-PPO + QA-chitosan 가교막의 이온교환막으로써의 가능성을 여러 특성평가로 확인하였다. Chitosan을 사용한 가교막보다 QA-chitosan을 사용한 가교막이 가교가 더 잘 이루어졌으며, QA-chitosan의 함량이 증가할수록 이온교환용량이 1.18 meq/g에서 1.53 meq/g까지 증가하는 경향, 함수율이 21.6%에서 42.2%까지 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.

Rheological properties of chitosan solutions were investigated as a function of polymer concentration. The viscosity curves for chitosan solutions consisted of two distinct viscosity regions, the Newtonian zero-shear viscosity (η$_{0}$) region and the shear rate dependent apparent viscosity (η$_{app}$) region. The shear rate dependence of viscosity was more clearly observed at higher chitosan concentrations. The critical coil overlap parameter (C＊〔η〕) was determined to be approximately 3.2 from a plot of zero-shear specific viscosity η$_{sp,0}$ vs coil overlap parameter (C〔η〕), which was lower than C〔η〕4.0 reported for other random coil polysaccharides. It was also found that the slope of η$_{sp,0}$ vs C〔η〕 was 3.9 at concentrated C〔η〕>C＊〔η〕domain, while 1.2 at dilute C〔η〕$_{0}$ ${\gamma}$/${\gamma}$$_{0.8}$ relation.ion.n.n.

Synthetic suede without PFCs(perfluorinated compounds) are followed by subsequent high temperature treatment. But migration fastness of synthetic suede may be reduced due to sublimation of disperse dyes that results from the high temperature treatment. Therefore, in this study, chitosan treatment was used to improve the migration fastness before polyurethane dipping process. Polyester fiber was treated with sodium hydroxide aqueous solution before chitosan processing. This samples treated with a chitosan concentration upto 0.5% were dyed and coated with PUD(polyurethane dispersion). The migration fastness was most improved at 0.35% application. This is presumably due to the fact that the chitosan may increase the dye-binding capability through intermolecular hydrogen bonding.

Two types of injectable system using thermosensitive chitosan (chitosan-g-NIPAAm), hydrogel and microparticles (MPs)-embedded hydrogel were developed as drug carriers for controlled release and their pharmaceutical potentials were investigated. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)-loaded, biodegradable PLGA MPs were prepared by a double emulsion method and then simply mixed with an aqueous solution of thermosensitive chitosan at room temperature. All 5-FU release rates from the hydrogel matrix were faster than bovine serum albumin (BSA), possibly due to the difference in the molecular weight of the drugs. The 5-FU release profile from MPs-embedded hydrogel was shown to reduce the burst effect and exhibit nearly zero-order release behavior from the beginning of each initial stage. Thus, these MPs-embedded hydrogels, as well as thermosensitive chitosan hydrogel, have promising potential as an injectable drug carrier for pharmaceutical applications.

성능이 우수한 킬레이트막을 개발하고자 chitosan에 글루타르알데히드를 가교시켜 막을 제조하였으며, 이 막을 통한 금속 이온의 투과 특성을 조사하였다. 막을 통한 이온의 투과는 downstream 용액의 pH의 영향을 크게 받았으며, 이 현산에 대하여 proton pump 메카니즘을 제안하였다. 막 표면에서의 착물형상에 의한 선택흡착성이 선택투과성에 영향을 미친다고 생각되며, $Mg^{2+}$과 $Cu^{2+}$의 혼합 용액에서 $Cu^{2+}$의 선택도는 9.5이었다.
