• Chitosan: An Overview of Its Properties and Applications (2021, background): “Antioxidant activity is more remarkable for low molecular weight samples rather than for high molecular weight ones since shorter chains form fewer intramolecular hydrogen bonds and therefore the reactive groups are more acces ‐ sible, contributing to the radical scavenging activity [87,88].”
• A Review of the Applications of Chitin and Its Derivatives in Agriculture to Modify Plant-Microbial Interactions and Improve Crop Yields (2013, background): “Chitosan has repeatedly been shown to possess antioxidant activity [194–197].”
• Chitosan in Plant Protection (2010, background): “[106] tested the antioxidant activity of several chitosan oligomers with various molecular weights and determined the IC50 of their scavenging ability against superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals.”
