Firstly, the optimized parameters for CS extraction were obtained by using Box–Behnken design(BBD) and response surface methodology(RSM) based on the single-factor experiments. As results, the optimum conditions were ultrasonic time 45min, ultrasonic power 280W and solvent/material ratio 6ml/g. Under these conditions, the experimental yield of CS was 4.623%. Secondly, the CS was purified by DEAE-Cellulose 52 chromatography and Sephadex G-100 chromatography to afford purified CS. Finally, we developed a simple method for the determination of glucuronic acid (GlcA) and N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) in purified CS by HPLC with a diode array detector (DAD). The results showed that there were obvious saccharides peaks in CS.
