Monodonta turbinata is a densely populated species along the coasts of İskenderun Bay, Mediterranean Sea. The shells of M. turbinata contain a high amount of chitin for the chitosan production. The goal of this research is to produce chitin and chitosan from M. turbinata shells and characterize them using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) techniques. In addition, the samples were analyzed for solubility and deacetylation degree. The yields of chitin and chitosan obtained from M. turbinata were calculated as 60.26±0.96% and 80±1.29%, respectively. FTIR spectrum analysis results revealed the existence of functional groups in various bands and confirmed that the samples were chitin and chitosan. As a result of the FTIR, the deacetylation degree (DD) value was established to be 84.83%. The crystalline index (CrI) of chitin obtained from shells was computed as 54.92%. SEM analysis results displayed the morphological differences between chitin and chitosan biopolymers. The results indicate that M. turbinata shells, a waste product from İskenderun Bay, hold promise as a chitin and chitosan source for various applications in Türkiye.

Öz

Monodonta turbinata, İskenderun Körfezi kıyılarında yoğun olarak bulunan bir türdür. Bu türler, kitosana dönüştürülebilen yüksek miktarda kitin içerir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, M. turbinata kabuklarından kitin ve kitosan elde etmek ve X-ışını kırınımı (XRD), Fourier Dönüşümlü Kızılötesi Spektroskopi (FTIR) ve Taramalı Elektron Mikroskobu (SEM) teknikleri kullanarak karakterize etmektir. Ayrıca asitteki çözünürlüğü ve deasetilasyon dereceleri de belirlenmiştir. M. turbinata kabuklarından elde edilen kitin ve kitosan verimleri sırasıyla %60,26±0,96 ve %80±1,29 olarak hesaplanmıştır. FTIR spektrum analizi sonuçları farklı bantlarda fonksiyonel grupların varlığını göstermiş ve örneklerin kitin ve kitosan olduğunu doğrulamıştır. FTIR analizi kullanılarak DD değeri %84,83 olarak bulunmuştur. Kabuklardan elde edilen kitinin kristal indeksi (CrI) %54,92 olarak hesaplanmıştır. SEM analiz sonuçları, kitin ve kitosan biyopolimerleri arasındaki morfolojik farklılıklarını ortaya koymuştur. İskenderun Körfezi'nde yoğun bir popülasyona sahip M. turbinata kabuk atığının, Türkiye'deki çeşitli uygulamalar için umut verici bir kitin ve kitosan kaynağı olduğunu göstermektedir.
