Suspending Agents

Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Viscosity:800-1200 mPa.s) is the sodium salt of cellulose arboxymethyl and frequently used as viscous agent, paste and barrier agent.

Methyl cellulose (MC) (Viscosity:100000mPa.s) is a non-ionic cellulose ether with surface activity and thermogelation properties. Methyl cellulose (Viscosity:100000mPa.s) is widely used as drug delivery agents, thickeners, stabilizers, emulsifiers, etc., in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, and construction.

Polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 is a compound which has been widely tested and used in human and veterinary medicine as an effective wound healing accelerator and disinfectant when combined with iodine and other compounds.

HPMC (Viscosity:11250-21000mPa.s) is a hydrophilic, non-ionic cellulose ether used to form swellable-soluble matrices.

Sodium alginate is the sodium salt of alginic acid. Sodium alginate can be extracted and purified from brown seaweed Laminaria japonica. Sodium alginate can be used in food additives and pharmaceuticals, adsorb heavy metal ions, and has mucosal-protective and hemostatic effects.

Gum Arabic is an orally active complex branched polysaccharide. Gum Arabic can be isolated from the Acacia senegal tree. Gum Arabic upregulates the expression of maturation markers (CD86, CD40, and CD54), promotes ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and inhibits Apoptosis. Gum Arabic exhibits antimalarial effects against Plasmodium berghei ANKA. Gum Arabic exhibits hepatoprotective, renal, and cardiovascular protective activities. Gum Arabic improves obesity. Gum Arabic is commonly used as a stabilizer and thickener. Gum Arabic can be used in the research of brain tumor imaging.

Guar gum is an orally active nonionic galactomannan polysaccharide. It is present in the endosperm of Cyamopsis tetragonolobus seeds. Guar gum reduces cholesterol levels, regulates body weight, and acts as a thickener and viscosity modifier by forming hydrogen-bonded aqueous solutions. It serves as a rate-controlling excipient in compound delivery systems, and finds applications in the food, tissue engineering, nanosensing and industrial fields.

Maltitol is an orally active polyol and sugar alcohol sweetener produced by the hydrogenation of maltose. Maltitol can replace sucrose and has characteristics of having a minor impact on blood sugar and potential prebiotic effects.

Carboxyl methylstarch sodium is an anionic polymer prepared by carboxymethylation of starch, with properties of stability, thickening ability and film-forming capacity. Carboxyl methylstarch sodium exhibits metal adsorption activity and can remove copper ions and cadmium ions from aqueous solutions. Carboxyl methylstarch sodium can serve as a hydrophilic shell component for AIE-active luminescent polymer nanoprobes to achieve high water dispersibility. Carboxyl methylstarch sodium can bind to vancomycin without altering the in vitro antibacterial activity of vancomycin. Carboxyl methylstarch sodium possesses biodegradable, non-toxic and environmentally friendly characteristics. Carboxyl methylstarch sodium can be applied to relevant researches in various fields such as food, medicine and industry.

Sorbitan monooctadecanoate (Sorbitan monostearate) is a hydrophobic nonionic surfactant. Sorbitan monooctadecanoate can serve as a pharmaceutical excipient, such as an emulsifier, nonionic surfactant, solubilizer, wetting agent, and dispersing/suspending agent.

Tragacanth gum is an orally active anionic composite polysaccharide and multifunctional biomaterial. Tragacanth gum exhibits biocompatibility, mucoadhesion and renoprotective effects, and effectively promotes wound closure and tissue healing. Tragacanth gum can be isolated from Astragalus gummifer. Tragacanth gum acts as an emulsifier and drug delivery carrier, and is also widely used in fields such as 3D scaffolds, tissue engineering and green nanoparticle preparation. High doses of Tragacanth gum may induce reversible forestomach squamous epithelial hyperplasia in mice, but show no mutagenic or carcinogenic activity. Tragacanth gum is commonly used in studies related to diseases including systemic candidiasis, rheumatoid arthritis and osteosarcoma.

Cristobalite can be used as an excipient, such as disintegrants, anti-adhesives, glidants, suspending agents, thickeners, defoamers. Pharmaceutical excipients, or pharmaceutical auxiliaries, refer to other chemical substances used in the pharmaceutical process other than pharmaceutical ingredients. Pharmaceutical excipients generally refer to inactive ingredients in pharmaceutical preparations, which can improve the stability, solubility and processability of pharmaceutical preparations. Pharmaceutical excipients also affect the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME) processes of co-administered drugs.

Amorphous silica can be used as an excipient, such as viscosifier, suspending agent, tablet disintegrating agent, adsorbent dispersing agent as liquid in powders. Pharmaceutical excipients, or pharmaceutical auxiliaries, refer to other chemical substances used in the pharmaceutical process other than pharmaceutical ingredients. Pharmaceutical excipients generally refer to inactive ingredients in pharmaceutical preparations, which can improve the stability, solubility and processability of pharmaceutical preparations. Pharmaceutical excipients also affect the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME) processes of co-administered drugs.

Carbomer (Carboxy polymethylene) is an acrylic acid polymer, which can be used as a thickening agent. Carbomer provides a stable gel matrix, exhibits good heat, light and microbial contamination resistance. Carbomer facilitates the drug release and local application, which can be used in the pharmaceutical industry.
