Chicken Bone as Chitin Source
View through CrossRef
Chitin extraction has been the interest of many researchers using it as biopolymer in many applications. Many approaches have been adopted in chitin extraction. The aim of this work isto prepare chitin from chicken bone, proposing a new approach, using all chicken bone as source of chitin and recycling this waste instead of accumulation as refuse. A chemical method was used in extractingchitin (deproteinization and demineralization).The obtained chitin was characterized byFourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence(XRF).The best result obtained was in experiment E5,which are close to the standard results, but chitin extraction was 16.25% of the total weight of the chicken bone used in the experiment. Which is considered a high percentage compared to the state of research on chitin extraction from chicken feat.
