cellulose:
Cellulose is a macromolecular polysaccharide composed of glucose. Insoluble in water and general organic solvents. It's the main component of the plant cell wall. Cellulose is the most widely distributed and abundant polysaccharide in nature, accounting for more than 50% of the carbon content in the plant kingdom. The cellulose content of cotton is close to 100%, which is the purest natural source of cellulose. In general wood, cellulose accounts for 40~50%, there are 10~30% hemicellulose and 20~30% lignin.

Cellulose is the main structural component of plant cell wall and is usually combined with hemicellulose, pectin and lignin. The mode and degree of binding greatly affect the texture of plant-derived foods. The change of plant texture at maturity and after ripening is caused by the change of pectin substance. Cellulase does not exist in human digestive tract. Cellulose is an important dietary fiber. One of the most widely distributed and abundant polysaccharides in nature.

Cellulose are: polypolymeric cellulose, lignin fiber, cellulose ether, methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose and so on

Product Description:

Application:
1.  mainly for application of chemicals as adhesive agent and crack agent forming agent to improve hardness crack ability increasing freedom of release as well as improve inner quality and curative effect. Especially for some big fragile tablets with high elasticity.
2.  Add 5-20% percent when make tablets adhesives using wet method.
3.  used as additives for foodstuff as emulsification, stabilizing agent, suspending agent, thicker agent, coating agent for drinks, cakes ,jams, etc.
4.  used in daily chemicals when making frost agent, shampoo, emulsion, etc.

Cellulose is the oldest and most abundant natural polymer on earth. It is inexhaustible and the most precious natural renewable resource for human beings. Cellulose chemistry and industry began more than 160 years ago, which was the main research object in the period of the birth and development of polymer chemistry. The research achievements of cellulose and its derivatives have made great contributions to the establishment, development and enrichment of polymer physics and chemistry.

Physiological function of folding

Folded dietary fiber

Cellulose in human diet is mainly contained in vegetables and rough processed cereals. Although it can not be digested and absorbed, it can promote intestinal peristalsis and facilitate excretion of feces. Herbivores rely on symbiotic microbes in their digestive tracts to break down cellulose for uptake and use. Food cellulose includes crude fiber, semi-crude fiber and lignin. Food fiber, a substance that is not digested and absorbed, used to be considered "waste", but in 2013 it was recognized to play an important role in protecting human health and prolonging life. Therefore, it is called the seventh nutrient.

Dietary cellulose, generally used from natural food (konjac, oats, buckwheat, apple, cactus, carrots, etc.) extracted from a variety of types of high purity dietary fiber. The main functions of dietary fiber are:

Molecular structure of cellulose

Molecular structure of cellulose

1. Treatment of diabetes

Dietary fiber can improve insulin receptor sensitivity and insulin utilization rate. Dietary fiber can wrap the sugar of food, make it gradually absorbed, have the effect of balancing the postprandial blood glucose, so as to achieve the role of regulating the blood glucose level of diabetic patients and treating diabetes.

2. Prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease

Elevated serum cholesterol levels can lead to coronary heart disease. The excretion of cholesterol and cholic acid has a very close relationship with dietary fiber. Dietary FIBER CAN BE COMBINED WITH CHOLIC ACID, AND MAKE CHOLIC ACID RAPID DISCHARGE OUTSIDE BODY, AT THE SAME TIME DIETARY FIBER AND THE RESULT THAT CHOLIC ACID COMBINES, CAN MAKE CHOLESTEROL TO CHOLIC ACID TRANSFORM, REDUCED CHOLESTEROL LEVEL THEREBY.

3. Blood pressure reduction

Dietary fiber can absorb ions, exchange with sodium ions and potassium ions in the gut, thereby reducing the ratio of sodium and potassium in the blood, thus playing a role in lowering blood pressure.

4. Anticancer effect

Since the 1970s, more and more studies have been reported on the anti-cancer effects of dietary fiber, especially on the relationship between dietary fiber and digestive tract cancer. Earlier studies in India showed that people living in northern India ate much more dietary fiber than those living in the south and had much lower rates of colon cancer. Based on the results of this investigation, scientists did further research and found that dietary fiber prevents colon cancer for the following reasons: some saprophytes in the colon can produce carcinogens, while some beneficial microorganisms in the gut can use dietary fiber to produce short-chain fatty acids, which can inhibit the growth of saprophytes; Cholic acid and goose cholic acid in bile can be metabolized by bacteria for the carcinogenic agent and mutagenic agent of cells, dietary fiber can bind cholic acid and other substances and discharge it outside the body, prevent the generation of these carcinogenic substances; Dietary fiber can promote intestinal peristalsis, increase stool volume, shorten emptying time, thereby reducing the chance of carcinogens in food and colon contact; The beneficial bacteria in the intestine can use dietary fiber to produce butyric acid, which can inhibit the growth and proliferation of tumor cells, induce the transformation of tumor cells into normal cells, and control the expression of oncogenes.

5, weight loss treatment of obesity

Dietary fiber replaces the amount of some nutrients in the food and reduces the total food intake. Dietary fiber promotes the secretion of saliva and digestive fluid, played a filling role to the stomach, while absorbing water and expanding, can produce satiety and inhibit eating desire. Dietary fiber binds to some fatty acids, which cannot be absorbed as they pass through the digestive tract, thus reducing the absorption rate of fat.

6. Treat constipation

Dietary fiber has a strong water holding capacity, its water absorption rate up to 10 times. After it absorbs water, the volume of intestinal contents increases, and the stool becomes loose and soft. It will pass through the intestine more smoothly and with less effort. At the same time, as a foreign body in the intestine, dietary fiber can stimulate the contraction and peristalsis of the intestine, accelerate stool excretion, and play a role in treating constipation. folding
