Crystal conversion of beta-chitin to alpha-chitin by aq. NaOH treatment was studied for a highly crystalline beta-chitin sample from diatom spine. The minimum NaOH concentration to cause swelling was between 25% and 30% w/w. The alkali-swollen material was poorly crystalline and was regenerated as alpha-chitin on washing with water. This conversion caused total collapse of the original microfibrillar morphology. These features are similar to those of 7 N-8 N HCl treatment reported earlier, but alkali treatment was free from depolymerization or deacetylation.
通过氢氧化钠水溶液处理将β-几丁质晶体转化为α-几丁质，对来自硅藻刺的高结晶度β-几丁质样品进行了研究。引起膨胀的最低氢氧化钠浓度在25%至30%（重量/重量）之间。碱溶胀材料结晶度差，用水洗涤后再生为α-几丁质。这种转化导致原始微纤维形态完全崩溃。这些特征与先前报道的7N - 8N盐酸处理的特征相似，但碱处理没有解聚或脱乙酰化现象。
