What is Water-Soluble Chitin and Chitosan Derivatives about?

This document describes the preparation and characterization of water-soluble chitin and chitosan derivatives. Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) of various molecular weights was modified with aldehyde groups and reacted with chitosan under various conditions to produce chitosan-PEG hybrids. The chitosan-PEG hybrids were then acetylated to produce chitin-PEG hybrids. The solubility of the derivatives was tested in different pH buffers. Some of the derivatives were found to be soluble in phosphate buffer saline at
