Waterlogged Pressure Tanks. A waterlogged pressure tank is caused by the confined space within the tank having an improper ratio of water to air (too much water, not enough air). Given the physical characteristics of water (incompressible), this condition causes the pressure to fluctuate rapidly and the well pump to go on and off too much.
Antioxidant activity of chitin, chitosan, and their derivatives can be attributed to in vitro and in vivo free radical-scavenging activities. Antioxidant effect of chitin, chitosan, and their derivatives may be used as functional ingredients in food formulations to promote consumer health and to improve the shelf life of food products. Structure of Chitin, what it is made of
Synonyms: chitosan N-acetylglucosaminohydrolase. Chitosanase catalyzes the endohydrolysis of Î²-1,4-linkages between D-glucosamine (GlcN-GlcN) residues in chitosan. The enzyme from Streptomyces has been reported to also hydrolyze the GlcNAc-GlcN linkage in partially acetylated chitosan.
