Abstract

Procedures for isolatin of chitin have been developed from crab(Chionoecetes opilio) shell waste with 26. 65% chitin on a dry basis. Optimal conditions for demineralization of crab shell were 1N HCl at ambient temperature for 30min with a solids to solbent ratio of 1 : 15(w/v). Optimal deproteinization involved treatment with 5% NaOH at $65^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr with a solids to solvent ratio of 1 : 15(w/v). Effective decoloration was achieved by bleaching with 0.32% sodium hypochlorite solution for 3min with a solids to solvent ratio of 1 : 10(w/v). Particular attentin was given to characterization of the physicochemical properties of the crab chitin. Chitins, from four different mesh sizes of crab shell, did not show significant differences in nitrogen and ash compositions. Bleaching decreased the viscosity of chitin but did not affect its solubility.

게 가공 폐기물을 부가가치가 높은 키틴 자원으로 활용코자, 이들 폐기물로 부터 키틴을 효율적으로 분리할 수 있는 조건을 설정하고 이로 부터 제조된 키틴의 물리화학적 성질을 조사하였다. 탈회분은 원료중량의 15배에 해당하는 1N HCI로 실온에서 30분간 교반함으로서, 탈단백질은 탈휘분된 시료에 원료중량의 15배에 해당하는 5% NaOH용액으로 $65^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 동안 교반함으로서 가장 효율적으로 이루어졌다. 탈색소는 원료중량의 10배에 해당하는 0.32% NaOCI로 3분간 처리시 가장 바람직하였다. 침지에 의한 탈회분 및 탈단백질은 교반에 비해 추출 효율성이 낮고 장시간을 요하였다. 백색의 최종 키틴제품은 질소함량이 6.45%, 회분은 0.15%이었으며, 5% lithium chloride를 함유한 N,N-dimethylacetamide-용액(DMAc-5% LiCI)에서 0.1% 키틴의 점도는 12.8cP를 나타냈다. 또한 DMAc-5% LiCI에서 키틴의 용해도는 58.4%를 나타냈으며, bulk density는 입자 크기가 20~40mesh 일때 0.27g/ml, 100mesh 이하일 때는 0.43g/ml를 나타내었다. 입자 크기에 따른 키틴의 질소 및 회분함량에는 별 차이가 없었으며, 키틴의 수율은 입자의 크기가 클수록 증가하는 경향이었다. 키틴 제조시 탈색공정은 키틴의 점도를 감소시켰으며 용해도에는 별 영향이 없었다.
