Abstract

Herein, we describe in first the application of squid pens for the preparation of pharmaceutical-grade oligochitosan hydrochloride with the physicochemical characteristics corresponding with the requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia. It is shown that the use of specific properties of squid pens as a source of parent chitosan allows preparing the product with a high yield at relatively moderate process conditions used for squid pens treatments and chitosan depolymerization.
