Can Chitin and Chitosan Replace the Lichen Evernia prunastri for Environmental Biomonitoring of Cu and Zn Air Contamination?

This study compared the ability of the lichen Evernia prunastri, chitin and chitosan to take up Cu(2+) and Zn(2+). It was hypothesized that chitin and chitosan have an accumulation capacity comparable to the lichen, so that these biopolymers could replace the use of E. prunastri for effective biomon...
