Progress in chitin analytics

Mikhail Tsurkan et al.

Summary: Chitin, a key structural component in living organisms, is commonly found in nanoorganized forms in nature. Despite its long history of study, highly sensitive analytical methods are still required for its identification. This review provides an overview of various analytical methods used for chitin identification, including spectroscopic, chromatographic, electrophoretic, and diffraction methods.
