N-Trimethylation of nanochitin for high dispersibility and pH-independent antibacterial activity
Partially deacetylated nanochitins (NH2NCs) possess cationic properties that allow their stable dispersion in acidic water. Their surface charge plays a crucial role in their antibacterial functions, which occur through electrostatic interactions. However, NH2NCs lose their positive charge upon depr...
