Table 1.

Degree of deacetylation, intrinsic viscosity, and average molecular weight of commercial chitosan and deacetylated chitosan.

Sample	DD [%]	Intrinsic Viscosity [dL/g]	Molecular Weight Mv [g/mol]
Cs	85	7.7	51,400
dCS	96	7.5	498,300

Where: Cs—commercial chitosan, dCs—additionally deacetylated chitosan, DD—degree of deacetylation.
