Antioxidant and Free Radical Scavenging Activities of Chitosan Materials

Abstract:

Chitosan and its derivatives, which are known to possess multiple functional properties, have captured considerable interest due to their biological activities and potential applications in food, pharmaceutical, agricultural and environmental industries. This paper focuses on the antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities of various chitosan materials based on our and others’ latest research results, including scaffold, film, tablet, nanoparticle, and so on. The free radical scavenging mechanisms are summarized. This work may provide more insights into the antioxidant ability of chitosan and its derivatives and potentially enable them to use as natural antioxidant materials for application in food, agriculture, cosmetic and biomedical science.
