The applications of chitin, chitosan and a number of their chemical and natural derivatives, proposed in very recent publications and patents (1977–1980) are reviewed in various fields, including fibre and film manufacture, as paper additives, in metal ion recovery, as semi-synthetic polymers, flocculants, fungicides and a number of aspects of biochemistry. A major trend in chitin applied research is towards more sophisticated applications dealing with immunochemistry, medical aids, enzyme immobilisation and membrane technology. Chitin, therefore, represents an important renewable resource.
