This study evaluated the effectiveness of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) hydrogel as a dental gel in delivering hydroxyapatite (HAp) to dentine tubules and reducing/eliminating dental hypersensitivity. The hydrogel was prepared by mixing solutions of CMC/ glycerol and distilled water/sorbitol then modified to contain 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% HAp. The pH of the hydrogels decreased and viscosity incre...

The plasticized solid bio-polymer electrolytes (SBEs) system has been formed by introducing glycerol (Gly) as the plasticizer into the carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) doped with oleic acid (OA) via solution casting techniques. The ionic conductivity of the plasticized SBEs has been studied using Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy. The highest conductivity achieved is 1.64 × 10(-4) S cm(-1) for sys...

Materials and methods: The rats were randomly divided into four groups of 6 rats each. Group 1 rats received 1.0 ml of 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) throughout the experimental period and served as the control. Group 2 rats received CMC as in group 1 and isoproterenol (85 mg/kg body weight) intraperitoneally twice at an interval of 24 hours on the 14th and 15th days. The rats in group 3 re...

The nasal absorption of macromolecules from powder formulations and the effect of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na) as a pharmaceutical excipient on their absorption were studied. Model macromolecules were fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran (average molecular weight of 4.4kDa, FD4) and insulin. The plasma concentration of FD4 after application of the powder containing 50% starch (...

Utilization of hemicelluloses from biomass energy is an important approach to explore renewable resources. A convenient, quick, and inexpensive method for the preparation of blended films from quaternized hemicelluloses (QH) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was introduced into this study. QH and CMC solution were first mixed to form homogeneous suspension, and then were dried under vacuum to f...

New superabsorbent hydrogels were synthesized through free radical graft copolymerization of partially neutralized acrylic acid (AA) and 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid (AMPS) onto carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) backbones. The structure and morphology of the synthesized superabsorbent hydrogels were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microsco...

Drilling fluids can be considered complex liquids containing several desired materials. These materials (small additives) are specialty products that serve a specific need, such as controlling the rheological properties of drilling fluid and reducing corrosion for operational both oil gas wells. Additives used to resist called inhibitors. Previous research has shown polymers Carboxymethyl Cellu...

Fungi involved in the biodegradation of maizecob were isolated and screened for cellulase activity using glucose and carboxylmethyl cellulose as carbon sources. The effect of the carbon sources on cellulase production was determined. Eleven fungi species were isolated which include Rhizopus oryzae, Aspergillus flavus, Mucor racemosus, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium atrovenetum, Penicillium expa...

To utilize a super-hydrophobic tetradecane-adsorbed marshmallow-like gel as phase-change material (PCM) carrier for latent heat transportation by mixing the particles with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) solution, dispersion characteristics and flow of slurry were investigated. investigate slurry, visual observation under static conditions was performed while varying concentration CMC, app...
