Features: Chitosan is derived from chitin, but the solubility of chitosan greatly expands the application range of chitin. Therefore, in recent years, biomedical materials based on chitosan have attracted increasing attention, and many new products have been developed. This book first elaborates on the basic properties and chemical reactions of chitosan, and then introduces chitosan derivatives and composite materials that have been the focus of attention in recent years. In Chapter 2, it not only introduces the enterprise standards for medical chitosan formulated by the authors but also cites the international standards for pharmaceutical and medical chitosan for readers. Chapters 3 and 4 provide a detailed introduction to our many years of basic research and new work. Chapter 5 introduces the development trends of chitosan to help a broad readership gain an understanding and participate in its development. The target readers of this book are medical and scientific researchers, and it is also an excellent reference for college students and graduate students.
