1. Chlorine and Fluorine Determination in Eye-Pencil: Development of an Eco-Friendly Sample Preparation Method for Ion Chromatography Analysis
In this paper, a feasible method was proposed for the chlorine and fluorine determination in eye-pencil samples using ion chromatography (IC). The microwave-induced combustion (MIC) was used to digest up to 200 mg of a sample, with 50 mg of microcrystalline cellulose as a combustion aid and only water for analytes absorption. Cl and F recoveries were 105 ±

2. Tapioca starch films reinforced with microcrystalline cellulose for potential food packaging application
Abstract This work is directed towards developing biodegradable films from biopolymer that is sustainable and environmentally friendly particularly tapioca starch (TPS) films. However, the usage of TPS films for food packaging application has been limited due to the poor mechanical, barrier and thermal properties. Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) at differen

3. Formulation development and evaluation of colon targeted delayed release methotrexate pellets for the treatment of colonic carcinoma
Colonic carcinoma is one of the most common internal malignancies and is the second leading cause of deaths in United States. Methotrexate (MTX) is a drug of choice in the treatment of colon cancer. The aim of the present research work was to develop and characterize colon targeted pellets of MTX for treatment of colonic carcinoma. The product and process pa

4. Effect of the Incorporation of Micro and Nanocellulose Particles on the Anticorrosive Properties of Epoxy Coatings Applied on Carbon Steel
Polymeric coatings may act as a physical barrier between the aggressive ions and the metal substrate. However, prolonged exposure may cause damage to the polymer coating, leading to a continuous reduction of the barrier effect and consequently loss of the corrosion protection. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of aminopropyltriethoxysila

5. Production of Furan Compounds from Sugarcane Bagasse Using a Catalytic System Containing ZnCl2/HCl or AlCl3/HCl in a Biphasic System
In this work, two catalytic systems combining Lewis and Brønsted acids (ZnCl2/HCl and AlCl3/HCl) were applied in a tetrahydrofuran (THF)/NaClaq biphasic system to produce furan compounds from plant polysaccharides. The following cellulosic matrices were applied for this purpose: α-cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose and both native and steam-exploded sug

6. Cellulose Oxidation and the Use of Carboxyl Cellulose Metal Complexes in Heterogeneous Catalytic Systems to Promote Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling and C-O Bond Formation Reaction
This work shows the modification of microcrystalline cellulose by the selective oxidation of primary hydroxyl groups to carboxylate groups by a 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (TEMPO)-mediated system and its application as a heterogeneous ligand by ionic exchange with catalytic metals ions such as palladium, nickel and copper. Afterwards is desc

7. Purification and characterization of a thermostable alkaline cellulase produced by Bacillus licheniformis 380 isolated from compost
ABSTRACT During composting processes, the degradation of organic waste is accomplished and driven by a succession of microbial populations exhibiting a broad range of functional competencies. A total of 183 bacteria, isolated from a composting process, were evaluated for cellulase activity at different temperatures (37, 50, 60, and 70°C) and pH values. Out

8. Influence of microcrystalline cellulose in thermoplastic starch/polyester blown films
Abstract This work investigated the influence of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) in thermoplastic starch/poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) films produced by blown extrusion, using different MCC contents (4, 7 and 10 g.100 g-1). The films were characterised for their mechanical, structural and barrier properties. Increasing fibres concentration reduce

9. Development of an oral suspension containing dry extract of Aleurites moluccanus with anti-inflammatory activity
Abstract Aleurites moluccanus L. (Willd.), Euphorbiaceae, is a tree that is native to Indonesia and India. Various parts of this tree are commonly used in traditional medicine to treat pain, fever, inflammation, hepatitis, gastric ulcer and other ailments. An oral suspension containing dried extract of A. moluccanus was developed and in vivo anti-inflammator

10. Development and characterization of hybrid materials based on biodegradable PLA matrix, microcrystalline cellulose and organophilic silica
The goal of this work was to investigate the production and properties of hybrid materials based on poly(lactic acid) (PLA), employing microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and organophilic silica (R972) as fillers. The composites were obtained by solution casting to form films. Each nanoparticle was incorporated at 3 wt. %, relative to the polymer matrix. In thi

11. Enhancement of anaerobic digestion of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) using natural micronutrient sources
The effect of adding four minerals as micronutrient sources to stimulate the anaerobic process of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was investigated. Three mineral doses (5, 10 and 15 mg/L) were evaluated and the response to trace metal addition was monitored by the methane yield (Y CH4) and specific methanogenic activity (SMA). A clear stimulation of the Y C

12. Development of tablets containing semipurified extract of guaraná (Paullinia cupana)
This study evaluated the technological feasibility of producing a semipurified extract of guaraná (Paullinia cupana Kunth, Sapindaceae) in tablet form, using a direct-compression process. Maltodextrin and gum arabic were used to produce the extract microparticles, in order to protect the microparticles against such factors as temperature, oxidation, and hum
