Description

Hydroxyethyl cellulose is a non-ionic, modified cellulose polymer used as a thickening agent for aqueous cosmetic and personal care formulations.

In Vitro

Stabilization of graphene oxide in physiological solution is performed using hydroxyethyl cellulose to make the resultant nanohybrid suitable for targeted drug delivery purposes. Hydroxyethyl cellulose effectively stabilizes graphene oxid in electrolyte solutions and the mechanism of stabilization appears to be depended on hydroxyethyl cellulose content. Hydroxyethyl cellulose content in the nanohybrid plays an important role in final application to make it applicable either as a carrier for controllable drug release or as a folate-targeted drug carrier[1]. Hydroxyethyl cellulose shows superior cryoprotective effects on LDH during freeze thawing, and considerable lyoprotective effects during the freeze drying process. Annealing has limited influence on the stabilizing effect of hydroxyethyl cellulose. The extensive reconstitution times of the hydroxyethyl cellulose lyophilisates could be greatly improved by incorporation of the surfactant Tween 80 into the formulations prior to freeze drying[2].

In Vivo:

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
