Chitin in Pharmaceutical Technology : A Guide to A Multifunctional Excipient
Adnan Ali Badwan
This book aims to treat chitin as a standalone biopolymer, highlighting its multifunctional applications, particularly in the formulation of pharmaceutical solid dosage forms. It is intended for a multidisciplinary audience and seeks to equip readers with the fundamental scientific principles of chitin science and technology. Such an approach will enable researchers from different backgrounds to pursue a unified objective of advancing chitin applications.
Indeed, this book advocates the potential of chitin as a multifunctional excipient, with its particle size and molecular weight modified to meet the requirements of continuous production of solid dosage forms. Key FeaturesDedicated solely to chitin in pharmaceutical technology, clearly distinguishing it from chitosan. Scientifically grounded, presenting core concepts in chemistry, biology, pharmacology, materials science, and pharmaceutics—ideal for multidisciplinary researchers.
Comprehensive coverage on extraction to formulation, nanochitin, composites, film formation, powder flow, compression, and regulatory insights. Sustainability focus aligning chitin with green chemistry and next-generation pharmaceutical excipient trends. Industry-tested expertise and based on author's 38 years of research, 140+ publications, and 55+ patents in pharmaceutical technology.
