What exactly is the ideal excipient? The one which helps make ingestion easier for customers and manufacturing simpler for producers. Not just an excipient which is permissible to use, but one that stretches beyond standard functionality. Microcrystalline cellulose may be the exact binding agent you are searching for. It won't gel like methyl-cellulose and if compared to other binding agents it appears to provide the optimal degree of brittleness whilst staying lubricant sensitive.

The end result is a pure, white powder without any taste or smell, able to add form and hardness to your tablets. MCC maintains the necessary advantages of a diluent. It is effective as a bulking agent in your tablet or capsule, giving the desirable weight for your customers. Microcrystalline cellulose has minimal bulk density, increasing flow characteristics. Easy flow helps to ensure that each ingredient is consistently spread throughout a mixture. If the mix is consistent, each tablet will have the same quantity of each ingredient at the end of production, creating a quality product. Microcrystalline Cellulose really does its job, and also it does it well. It works well with many other popular excipients and is a integral part of many manufacturers formulas. Binders undoubtedly are a crucial element in the tableting process simply because they ensure “hardness” in a tablet.
