      abstract = {This book reviews recent research and applications of  chitin and chitosan, as natural alternatives of fossil fuel  products, in medicine and pharmacy, agriculture, food  science and water treatment. Chitin and chitosan products  are polysaccharides derived from food waste of crustaceans  and fungi, and thus are cheap, abundant, sustainable,  non-toxic, recyclable and biocompatible. Remarkable  applications include food additives and preservation,  packaging materials, biopesticides and fertilisers, drug  delivery, tissue engineering, bioflocculation and dye  removal.},
