This study depicts the preparation of a new amino cellulose derivative of cellulose extracted from bagasse. 2,3-dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) with 60% degree of oxidation was prepared from cellulose by periodate oxidation. The obtained DAC was functionalized by Schiff base reaction with several amino acids up to 2.55% nitrogen content. Aliphatic/Aromatic, Mono/Dibasic, and Mono carboxylic/Dicarboxyli...
