An eco-friendly pretreatment method, ball milling, was reported to efficiently prepare nano-
chitin for the enzymatic production of N-acetylchitooligosaccharides (NCOS). In this process …

N, N′-diacetylchitobiose, also known as GlcNAc2, is a chitin oligosaccharide and is
reported to possess antimicrobial activity against pathogenic bacteria. In this study, 1%(w/v) …

Chitooligosaccharides, the hydrolysis products of chitin, have superior biological activities
and application value to those of chitin itself; however, the ordered and highly crystalline …

Abstract N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), a chitin monomer, can be used as a natural
preservative to ensure food quality and safety. Combining natural preservatives with low …

The high industrial demand for thermostable chitinase with new and desirable
characteristics has led to the exploration of chitinolytic bacteria from extreme environments …

N, N'-diacetylchitobiose (GlcNAc2) is known to be highly functional, soluble in water and
offers a wide range of applications, especially as an antimicrobial agent. In this study, we …
