After 24 hours, the immersion of media culture was used to examine the toxicity effects on BHK-21 cell based on MTT assay method. The density of optic formazan indicates the number of living. All data were then statistically and \yzed by one-way Anava. The number of living cells in chitosan from tiger prawn shell waste was 93,16%, 85.07%; 78.48%; 75.66%. Thus, there was no significant difference among groups. Chitosan with 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75% and 1% concentrations from tiger prawn shell waste were not toxic for BHK-21 cell culture when using parameter CD50.
