Application of Soluble Whey Protein-Carboxymethylcellulose Complex in Emulsion and Acid-induced Gelation
… complex between whey protein isolate (WPI) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) can be formed at pH above the pI of the protein. In the first study, the influence of CMC concentration and molecular weight (Mw = 270k, 750k, and 2,500kDa) on the stability and properties of WPI/CMC-stabilized …

THE SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF DUAL-MODIFIED CARBOXYMETHYLCELLULOSE FOR BIOADHESIVE APPLICATIONS
… and safety of surgical interventions. Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) is a plant-derived polymer that is cytocompatible, biocompatible, biodegradable, and inexpensive. The need for a non-toxic but strongly adherent material motivated the development of an injectable bioadhesive system …

Physicochemical and Sensory Characterisation of Interaction in Sodium-Chloride - Hydrocolloid Systems
… mixed. The hydrocolloids selected were carboxymethylcellulose (CMC, ionic) and methylcellulose (MC, nonionic). Interaction between the ion and hydrocolloids was measured using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to probe the mobility of $\sp{23}$Na nucleus. In addition, changes …

Production of temporary bone scaffold reinforced with OPEFB-CMC from oil palm empty fruit bunch
… physico-chemical properties. This research used Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) as the reinforcement material for CS / HA or nHA composite scaffold. The main objective is to produce CMC from Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch (OPEFB) for temporary biodegradable bone scaffold from a combination of CMC, CS …

An investigation into polymeric excipient-drug compatibility in solid-liquid formulations
… (HPMC), hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), gum arabic (GA), guar gum (GG) and lambda-carrageenan (l-carrageenan). The physico-chemical methods developed in this work help improve the current empirical selection of an appropriate polymer in pre-formulation …

The characterisation of alginate systems for biomedical applications
… (M)/guluronic (G) acid ratio), pectin and sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), for wound dressing applications. The samples were prepared as mixed salts such as sodium/calcium salts as Ca2+ ions are known to promote faster healing. The aims of this research were: 1- to provide a greater insight …

Understanding ionic transport in the macrostructure of polysaccharide bound electrodes for capacitive deionization
… compounds, namely chitosan (CS) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), as anodic and cathodic electrode binders respectively, improved charge efficiency and lifetime values of the electrodes in which they were employed, compared to a symmetric cell where electrodes were bound with the …

EVALUATION OF CELLULOLYTIC ENZYMES FROM A NEWLY ISOLATED BREVIBACILLUS SP. JXL; AND OPTIMIZATION OF COSLIF PRETREATMENT VARIABLES OF SWEET SORGHUM BAGASSE USING A RESPONSE SURFACE METHOD
… range of carbohydrates including: cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), xylan, cellobiose, glucose, and xylose. In two different media supplemented with crystalline cellulose and CMC at 57°C under aeration, strain JXL produced a basal level of cellulases as FPU of 0.02 IU/ml in the crude …

Water Quality Impact on Flotation Response: A Focus on Specific Ions and Temperature
… (SIPX) used as the respective collector. Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) was the depressant used and Nasfroth 240 was the frother used. The objective of this study was therefore to investigate the effect of specific ions and temperature, relevant to onsite process water recycling and …
