• Extraction and characterization of chitin and chitosan with antimicrobial and antioxidant activities from cosmopolitan Orthoptera species (Insecta) (2015, background): “Over the past few years, several groups have studied the antioxidant attributes of chitosan derivatives [29-32].”
• Physical properties and antioxidant activity of an active film from chitosan incorporated with green tea extract (2010, background): “The scavenging mechanism of chitosan is related to the fact that free radical can react with the residual free amino (NH2) groups to form stable macromolecule radicals, and the NH2 groups can form ammonium (NH3þ) groups by absorbing a hydrogen ion from the solution (Park et al.; Yen et al., 2008).”
• New chitin, chitosan, and O-carboxymethyl chitosan sources from resting eggs of Daphnia longispina (Crustacea); with physicochemical characterization, and antimicrobial and antioxidant activities (2014, background): “In previous studies, the antioxidant properties of chitosan from crab, shrimp and fungi were investigated [28-31].”
