Decrease of the average viscosimetricpolymerization degree (XV) was studied in a buffer solution of acetic acid (0.3 M)/sodium acetate (0.2 M) at 25 ºC.Under these experimental conditions it is possible to relate the instantaneous intrinsic viscosity [η] with MV throughthe Mark-Houwink-Sakurada equation. Equations of Sano, Solomon-Ciuta, Deb-Chatterjee and Ram-Yaseen, whichallow to compute values of [η] with a single measurement of relative (ηrel) and/or specific viscosity (ηsp), wereemployed to obtain instantaneous values of [η]. Instantaneous values of [η] were also obtained through an iterativeprocess using Huggins equation. Initial velocity of depolymerization (vo) was obtained from different concentrationof chitosan solutions and a fixed bromelain concentration. Michaelis-Menten constant (kM) and maximum velocity(Vm) were obtained using the Lineweaver-Burk representation of the Michaelis-Menten equation for each set of [η]which were calculated employing all procedures mentioned.
