• Unconventional Approach for Demineralization of Deproteinized Crustacean Shells for Chitin Production (2007, methodology): “Beaney et al.([15]) reported that the most abundant minerals in prawn shell were Ca, Mg, Na, Sr, K and Fe in that order and that calcium was by far the most abundant (about 17 times more calcium present than magnesium).”
• Chitosan: A Natural Biopolymer with a Wide and Varied Range of Applications (2020, background): “Nowa ays, there is a well-established protocol for the chitin extraction from shellfish wastes in industry, which includes the steps of demineralization, deproteiniz tion and decolorization [7,8].”
