“…The β -chitin allomorph is found in squid pens, within the cell walls of diatoms, and in skeletal structures of cephalopods. The third allomorph of chitin, γ -chitin, is a mixture of α- and β -chitin, where every third polymeric chain follows the opposite direction to the previous chains [ 39 ]. TE scaffolds have been prepared from both α -chitin ( Table 1 , Entries 3 , 4 , 6 – 8 , 12 – 20 , and 22 – 24 ) and β -chitin ( Table 1 , Entries 1 , 2 , 5 , 9 – 11 , 21 ) underscoring the variability inherent to this chitin type within scaffolding materials.…”

“…In addition, chitin can be deacetylated to chitosan using 30 to 60% (w/v) sodium or potassium hydroxide at 80-140 °C. The chemical methods and the high treatment temperatures have an influence on the molecular weight, degree of deacetylation, and functional properties of chitosan [75]. Chitosan has a huge number of applications compared to chitin because of the former's higher solubility and biocompatibility [76].…”
