Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) is a type of cellulose derived from wood pulp and is used in the healthcare services industry as an excipient in pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals. It is a white, odorless, tasteless powder that is insoluble in water and organic solvents. MCC is used as a filler, binder, disintegrant, and suspending agent in tablets, capsules, and other pharmaceutical formulations. It is also used as a bulking agent in nutraceuticals and dietary supplements. MCC is a safe and effective excipient that is non-toxic, non-irritating, and non-allergenic. It is also non-hygroscopic, which makes it ideal for use in dry formulations. Additionally, MCC is an effective disintegrant, which helps to break down tablets and capsules quickly and efficiently. Some of the major companies in the MCC market include JRS Pharma, Asahi Kasei, Colorcon, BASF, Roquette, and Ashland. Show Less Read more
