This reduces theviscosity and increases the mobility of the

Correct phasing and flat baseline is essential for goodresults.6.3 CalculationsFor chitosan chloride, signal intensitiesof H1D and H2D may be averaged. Similarly, intensities ofH1A and HAc/3 (3 protons in HAc) ma

25、y be averaged, to givea better estimate of the relative occurrence of GlcN- andGlcNAc-units. This gives a more precise estimate of % DA.Averaging of the two acetylated signals cannot be performedwith chitosan glutamate, due to severe overlap of HAc withglutamate signals (Figs. 1 and 2).6.3.1 The rel

For maximum accuracy, one shouldinclude this signal in the expression for the relative number ofGlcNAc-un

34、 1 to 2 percentage units).7. Range, Standard Deviation, and Reporting Results7.1 Standard deviations for repeatability and intermediateprecision have been found to be similar. The standard deviationof the method has been determined after validation to be lessthan 61 percentage unit.7.2 The determina

35、tion of low degrees of deacetylation byNMR is limited by the solubility of the sample. Experimentalresults indicate that the method is valid for % DAvalues higherthan 50. The method may be used to measure high degrees ofdeacetylation. Consequently, the range of the method is con-sidered to be valid

36、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 regularly maintained and controlled. % DAis obtained by comparing the signal intensities from the twocomponents, acetylated and deacetylated uni

RATIONALEX1.1 The use of naturally occurring biopolymers for bio-medica

40、l and pharmaceutical applications and in Tissue Engi-neered Medical Products (TEMPs) is increasing. This testmethod is designed to give guidance in characterizing thedegree of deacetylation of chitosan salts used in such applica-tions.X2. BACKGROUNDX2.1 Chitosan is a linear, binary polysaccharide co

41、nsistingof (14) linked 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose (Gl-cNAc; acetylated unit) and 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose(GlcN; deacetylated unit). The two different monosaccharidesdiffer only by the substitution at carbon 2; GlcNAc contains anN-acetylated amino group, whereas GlcN contains only the

42、amino-group (it is said to be deacetylated). Thus, the degree ofdeacetylation (in %) is a measure of the fraction of GlcN-unitsin the chitosan chain.FIG.
