ABSTRACT: A synthesis of nanochitosan from Bombyx mori
chitosan with particle sizes of 20 - 100 nm was carried out. The antibacterial
and immunological properties of synthesized nanochitosan were first studied. It
was revealed that preparations based on nanochitosan have pronounced
antibacterial activity, and are also able to significantly increase the immune
response of the living system.
