Ozonation Kinetics of glucosamine and N-Acetil Glucosamine In Aqueous Medium

摘要

Glucosamine and N-acetyl glucosamine show differnet behaviors towards ozone in aqueous medium: while glucosamine reacts relatively fast through ozoen attack to the amino group, N-acetyl glucosamine is much more resistant, resebling the reactivity of glucose. Results obtaiend indicate that a mechanism of viral inactivation via ozoen attack to the N-acetyl-glucosamine of hte viral capsid is not kinetically favored.
