Cellulose is a linear polysaccharide of β 1-4 linked glucose residues. The polysaccharide chains are bundled as microfibrils in cell walls and provide the essential structural components within growing plants. Each microfibril exhibits a high degree of three-dimensional internal bonding resulting in a crystalline structure that is insoluble in water, resistant to reagents and very strong. The crystalline region of cellulose is isolated to produce microcrystalline cellulose. Microcrystalline cellulose is a term for refined wood pulp and is used as a texturizer, an anti-caking agent, a fat substitute, an emulsifier, an extender, and a bulking agent in food production.

Microcrystalline cellulose, also known as MCC, is a polysaccharide composed of glucose units linked by β-1,4 glycosidic bonds. It is used as a binder keeping together the API and the rest of the excipients of drug formulations.

Cellulose, microcrystalline is used as an emulsifier, bulking agent in food production, extender and anti-caking agent. It is also used in vitamin supplements or tablets. It acts as an alternative to carboxymethylcellulose. It finds application in partition chromatography. Further, it is used as a thickener and stabilizer. In addition to this, it is used as an excipient in the pharmaceutical industry. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.

Cellulose with a particle size of 20μm is an industrial biomass material that has various applications. It is commonly used in the production of paper, textiles, and biofuels. Cellulose is a complex carbohydrate that provides structural support to plant cell walls. It can also be used as an excipient in pharmaceutical formulations, such as in the production of tablets. In addition to its industrial uses, cellulose has been studied for its antioxidant activity. It has been found to inhibit lipid peroxidation, which is a process that can lead to oxidative damage in cells. This antioxidant property makes cellulose a potential ingredient in skincare products or dietary supplements aimed at promoting overall health and well-being. Cellulose can be extracted from various sources, including wood pulp and agricultural waste. It is typically processed using solvents like chloroform or methanol to remove impurities and obtain a pure form of cellulose. With its versatility and wide range of applications, cellulose with a particle size
