Abstract:Background: Anabas testudineus fish scales are part of the fish that has not been used optimally. Fish scales contain chitin. Chitin which undergoes deacetylation, produces chitosan. Chitosan is an efficacious compound for antibacterial and diabetic wound healing.Objective: This study aimed to extract chitosan from fish scales and test the diabetic wound healing activity of fish scale extract gelMethods: Extraction of fish scales using 0.3 M NaOH, 0.55 M HCl, and 50% NaOH. FTIR will analyze the extraction res… Show more
