Lysozyme susceptibility of partially deacetylated chitins (DACs) was investigated by viscometric and gel permeation chromatographic procedures. The highest lysozyme susceptibility was shown by the DAC of around 70% deacetylation which have already been reported to have the highest immunoadjuvant activity through mouse peritoneal macrophage activation.
