摘要
A new method for the determination of the degree of N-acetylation (DA) of chitin and chitosan is described using first derivative diamond ATR FTIR spectroscopy. Applying the derivative values of the amide Ill band at 1327 cm(-1) and the CH deformation band of the N-acetyl group at 1383 cm(-1) as measure of the N-acetyl content of the sample in relation to the derivative value of the bridge oxygen vibration at 1163 cm(-1) as internal standard, a linear correlation to the results of first derivative UV spectroscopy was obtained and confirmed by elemental analysis and Raman spectroscopy. The described method allows the determination of the degree of N-acetylation of chitosan and chitin in the presence of water thus making drying procedures unnecessary. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
