Effective conditions for chitosan production from carapace and shell of black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) have been developed. The optimal deproteinization of both carapace and shell involved treatment with 1.0 N NaOH at 100 deg. C for 1 h with a solids to solvent ratio of 1:6 (w/v). The optimal conditions for demineralization were 1.25 N HCl and 0.75 N HCl for deproteinized carapace and shell at ambient temperature for 0.5 h with a solids to solvent ratio of 1:12 (w/v). The chitin from carapace and shell were satisfactorily deacetylated twice with 50 NaOH (w/v) under vacuum for 30 min each time with a solids to solvent ratio of 1:15 (w/v). Chitosan products from both carapace and shell showed moderate deacetylation with 57.0 and 45.6 degree of N-acetylation, respectively and contained 7.9-8.1 crude nitrogen with remarkably low ash content
