Chitosan was prepared by alkaline N-deacetylation of β-chitin from squid pens. Thiosemicarbazide group was introduced to chitosan via formaldehyde-derived linkages, and thiosemicarbazide chitosan (TSFCS) with different degrees of substitution (DS) was synthesized. The DS values of TSFCS calculated by elemental analysis were 0.19, 0.36 and 0.63. The structure of the TSFCS was confirmed by elemental analysis, FTIR, XRD, TGA and SEM. The adsorption capacity of Cu(II) ions by TSFCS showed good correlation with the DS and pH (pH range 2.2–5.8). The maximum Cu(II) ions adsorption capacity of all three TSFCS samples reached 134.0 mg g −1 at pH 3.6, but chitosan showed no adsorption at this pH. The adsorption equilibrium process of Cu(II) ions onto TSFCS was better described by the Langmuir model than the Freundlich isotherm model. Cu(II) ions adsorbed by TSFCS could be released using 0.01 M Na 2 EDTA and the adsorption capacity could retain above 80% after five adsorption-desorption cycles. TSFCS exhibited good potential for heavy metal removal because of its high adsorption capacity at the low pH.

Chitosan was prepared by N -deacetylation of squid pens β-chitin, and N -carboxyethylated chitosan ( N -CECS) with different degrees of substitution (DS) were synthesized. DS values of N -CECS derivatives calculated by 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy were 0.60, 1.02 and 1.46, respectively. The adsorption capacity of Cu(II) by N -CECS correlated well with the DS and pH ranging from 3.2 to 5.8. The maximum Cu(II) adsorption capacity ( q m ) of all three N -CECS at pH 5.4 was 207.5 mg g −1 , which was 1.4-fold higher than that of chitosan. The adsorption equilibrium process was better described by the Langmuir than Freundlich isotherm model. Adsorption of Cu(II) ion onto N -CECS followed a pseudo-second order mechanism with chemisorption as the rate-limiting step. In a ternary adsorption system, the adsorption capacity of Cu(II) by N -CECS also presented high values, and q m for Cu(II), Cd(II), and Pb(II) were 150.2, 28.8, and 187.9 mg g −1 , respectively.

TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical)-mediated 6-carboxy β-chitin derivatives (T-chitin) with different carboxylate content were successfully synthesized by controlling the addition level of NaClO as the primary oxidant. The structural and biochemical properties of the derivatives were investigated. The carboxylate contents of the derivatives calculated by electrical conductivity titration were 1.33, 1.68, 1.80, and 2.08 mmol/g, respectively. The yield of T-chitin with carboxylate content of 2.08 mmol/g reached 74.55%. T-chitin exhibited stronger bile acid binding capacities than that of β-chitin. The scavenging ability of T-chitin against hydroxyl radicals improved with increasing concentration, and EC 50 values were below 1.2 mg/mL. All T-chitin exhibited a strong ferrous ion chelating effect. At 8 mg/mL, the chelating effects of T-chitin with carboxylate content of 0.81 mmol/g reached 80.15%. These results showed that T-chitin had good bile acid binding capacity and antioxidant activities and it may be a potential antioxidant in vitro .

Chitosan was prepared by alkaline N-deacetylation of β-chitin from squid pens, and N-carboxyethylated derivatives (N-CECS) with different degrees of substitution (DS) were synthesized. The carboxyethylation of the polysaccharide was identified by Fourier transform infrared, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and X-ray diffraction analyses. The DS of the derivatives was calculated by 1H NMR and elemental analysis. All three N-CECS samples showed good water solubility at pH > 6.5. The antioxidant properties and bile acid binding capacity of the derivatives were studied in vitro. The highest bile acid binding capacity of all N-CECS reached 36.9 mg/g, which was 2.6-fold higher than that of chitosan. N-CECS showed a stronger scavenging effect on 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical ability, and EC50 values were below 2 mg/mL. The scavenging ability of N-CECS against superoxide radicals correlated well with the DS and concentration of N-CECS. These results indicated that N-carboxyethylation is a possible approach to prepare chitosan derivatives with desirable in vitro biochemical properties.
