Range, Standard Deviation, and Reporting Results7.1 Standard deviations for repeatability and intermediateprecision have been found

35、 to be similar. The standard deviationof the method has been determined after validation to be lessthan 61 percentage unit.7.2 The determination of low degrees of deacetylation byNMR is limited by the solubility of the sample. Experimentalresults indicate that the method is valid for % DAvalues high

Consequently, the range of the method is con-sidered to be valid for % DA values from 50 up to andincluding 99.7.3 Non-Applicable Method Parameters:7.3.1 AccuracyThis parameter is limited by how well theNMR instrument is regu

40、in characterizing thedegree of deacetylation of chitosan salts used in suchapplications.X2. BACKGROUNDX2.1 Chitosan is a linear, binary polysaccharide consistingof b(14) linked 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose(GlcNAc; acetylated unit) and 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose (GlcN; deacetylated unit).

41、 The two differentmonosaccharides differ only by the substitution at carbon 2;GlcNAc contains an N-acetylated amino group, whereas GlcNcontains only the amino-group (it is said to be deacetylated).Thus, the degree of deacetylation (in %) is a measure of thefraction of GlcN-units in the chitosan chai
