Abstract: This paper describes the selection of Gongronella butleri strains producing higher chitosan yield using UV mutagenesis. We have devised an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the selection of high chitin deacetylase (CDA) yielding strains. Mutant strains M+1, M+2 and M+7 could produce twice the extractable chitosan yield and double the CDA activity, as compared to the wild type strain. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
