Microcrystalline Cellulose Powder Hot Selling CAS 9004-34-6 with Best Price From Star-Selection
Product Description
Microcrystalline Cellulose 101, often abbreviated as MCC 101, stands as a prominent pharmaceutical excipient derived from purified cellulose fibers. Through a controlled hydrolysis process, cellulose is broken down into fine particles, resulting in a versatile and widely utilized pharmaceutical aid. Known for its excellent compressibility, flow properties, and biocompatibility, MCC 101 plays a crucial role in the formulation of various oral solid dosage forms.

Funtion
The main benefits of microcrystalline cellulose powder include:
1. Increase satiety : it can absorb a lot of water, forming colloids in the stomach, thereby increasing satiety, helping to reduce food intake, weight control .
2. Improve digestion : promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, help defecation, relieve constipation, regulate intestinal flora balance, improve digestion and absorption .
3. Prevent diabetes : Slow down the digestion and absorption of food in the gastrointestinal tract and avoid a sharp rise in blood sugar .
4. Lower cholesterol : Binds cholesterol so that it is excreted from the gut and lowers the amount of cholesterol in the blood for cardiovascular health .
5. Nutritional supplements : As a natural fiber, it can provide the body with the nutrients it needs .
Application
Microcrystalline cellulose powder is a colorless, tasteless, odorless powder, with good solubility and stability, widely used in food, cosmetics, medicine and other fields.
1. In the food industry, microcrystalline cellulose is commonly used as a thickening agent, stabilizer, emulsifier, etc., which can make food more dense, better taste and more uniform texture. For example, adding microcrystalline cellulose to dairy products can increase stability, make them less prone to condensation, improve their taste, and extend their shelf life. Microcrystalline cellulose, which is added in the preparation of foods such as pastries, can increase the fiber content and thus reduce the caloric intake. In addition, microcrystalline cellulose can also avoid the accumulation of oily components in emulsified beverages, improve the dispersibility of beverages, and maintain its stability .
2. In the field of cosmetics, microcrystalline cellulose is often used as an ingredient in cosmetics such as foundation and eyeshadow, which can make cosmetics easier to apply and take. It has the characteristics of good hygroscopicity, water retention and film forming, which can improve the use experience and effect of cosmetics .
3. In the pharmaceutical industry, microcrystalline cellulose is odorless, non-toxic, easy to disintegrate and will not react with drugs, and is an important excipient in the pharmaceutical industry. It has the functions of bonding drug ingredients, promoting drug molding, decomposing drug components and enhancing drug strength, and is mainly used as excipients, fillers and drug release modifiers in the preparation of drug tablets, drug particles and drug capsules. Microcrystalline cellulose can also be used as disintegrators, gels, excipients, etc., especially as diluents and adhesives in oral tablets and capsules, with lubricating and disintegrating effects, and is very useful in tablet preparation .
