 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 9 Pharmacological effect of chitin and its derivatives research [Keywords:] chitin;,, pharmacological effects Abstract: Objective To introduce the role of chitin pharmacological research for clinical application and in-depth study to provide reference. Method of extensive searches for relevant literature, analyze, organize, summarize. The results of chitin antibacterial anti-inflammatory, lipid-lowering, hypoglycemic, anti-tumor, anti-coagulation, anti-radiation, protecting the liver and other pharmacological effects. Conclusion with a wide range of pharmacological effects of chitin and its applications, it is worth in-depth study. Keywords:: chitin; pharmacological effects Chitin, also known as chitin, chitin, chitosan, etc., is a maintenance and protection of crustaceans and microbial body linear amino polysaccharide widely found in crustaceans such as crabs, shrimp, mollusks, insects, fungi, algae and higher plant cell walls, its rich resources, production second only to cellulose, is the second largest natural organic substances, but also natural addition to the largest number of nitrogen-containing proteins outside the natural organic polymers, each of the biosynthesis of the natural world was about 10 billion t. Chitin is found in more than a century, people of such compounds, a large number of basic and applied research, revealing its presence in the food, cosmetic, textile, environmental protection, agriculture, biotechnology applications in areas ranging from the value found in Chitin has not found the characteristics of cellulose, is the world’s only edible animals containing cationic fiber, is also considered following the protein, sugar, fats, vitamins, minerals, other than the elements of the sixth to life, can be applied in industrial areas (such as to replace the plastic), the agricultural sector (no pesticides, fertilizers), Cosmetics (adjusted skin, etc.), medicine, membrane materials and other environmentally-friendly,
