Structural characterization of polymeric chitosan and mineral from Omani shrimp shells

Shrimp shell waste is a burden nowadays globally due to its environmental pollutions. However, shrimp shells contain various ingredients such as chitosan, chitin, minerals, and proteins, which are essential for biomedical, agriculture, and industrial sectors. Chitosan is a polymer, and it is charact...
