A quantitative determination method of N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc) and N,N'-diacetylchitobiose (GlcNAc)(2) is proposed using a proton nuclear magnetic resonance experiment. N-acetyl groups of GlcNAc and (GlcNAc)(2) are chosen as target signals, and the deconvolution technique is used to determine the concentration of the corresponding compound. Compared to the HPLC method, (1)H-NMR spectroscopy is simple and fast. The method can be used for the analysis of chitin hydrolyzed products with rea ...[more]
