Line # Referee’s Comments Author's Responses
did you confirmed the name of material you
mentioned in Title? The title has been revised
mostly presenting results and have no mentioned the new finding or imprivement. Beside its very
poor English
New Finding is improving the adsorption capacity by 75,62% compare to the non imprinted polymer
The results are important to be reported * There could be. But it is not strongly mentioned in the body of discussion.
Revised
In general, the writing is very poor English structure.
Revised
The introduction is not delivered fluently.
Thus it is difficult to find the main topic of this
paper. Please restructuring the Introduction
Revised
Dose rate of gamma-ray should be informed, higher and lower dose rate could produce different results.
Added
FTIR: what is the resolution 4 cm-1 DSC: what is the point for having running of
polymeric sample until 500 C.
exothermic peak temperature of succinate chitosan at 410 °C [reff.7]
DSC: Did you run only first heating ? If so, because you dealing with polymeric
material, you can not analyze as you mentioned in paper.
Second heating, first heating has been done below Tg.
The structure of Chitosan, Did you write properly ?
Yes I did
