Determination of Corboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC)

Determination of Corboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC)

Corboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is an anionic, water-soluble polymer based on renewable cellulosic raw material. It acts as a rheology modifier, retains water and is an excellent film former. These properties have allowed it to be used as a bio-based hydrocolloid in many applications.

Determination of Corboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC)

Having high purity grades, corboxymethyl cellulose provides many benefits for the food and beverage industry, such as protein stabilization. It is also used in a variety of personal care and pharmaceutical applications.

Its excellent water retention and good film forming properties make it useful for numerous industrial applications such as paper surface treatment, mining, fabric care, textiles and ceramics.

Corboxymethyl cellulose, a cellulose gum, is used to preserve the freshness of many food products, especially in the food industry. For example, this compound is even used in ice cream, frozen desserts, baked goods, salad dressings, processed cheese, sugar-coated products, gelatinous desserts and baby foods.

According to the results of research on animals, this compound negatively affects intestinal microbes and causes inflammation in the intestines. It is also a harbinger of obesity and diabetes in humans. Therefore, consumption of corboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) should be avoided.

In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. Corboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) determination services are among the numerous tests performed in this context.
