Viscoelastic evaluation of topical creams containing microcrystalline cellulose/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose as stabilizer [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to examine the viscoelastic properties of topical creams containing various concentrations of microcrystalline cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Avicel(R) CL-611) as a stabilizer. Avicel CL-611 was used at 4 different levels (1%, 2%, 4%, and 6% dispersion) to prepare topical creams, and hydrocortisone acetate ...

Optimization of reaction conditions for preparing carboxymethyl cellulose from sago waste [PDF]
Sago pulp (57% w/w) isolated from sago waste was converted to carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) by etherification using sodium monochloroacetate and sodium hydroxide. The reaction was optimized against temperature, concentration and reaction time.

The ergogenic effect of beta-alanine combined with sodium bicarbonate on high-intensity swimming performance [PDF]
We investigated the effect of beta-alanine (BA) alone (study A) and in combination with sodium bicarbonate (SB) (study B) on 100- and 200-m swimming performance. In study A, 16 swimmers were assigned to receive either BA (3.2 g·day−1 for 1 week and 6.4 g·

Stabilization of low-cost phase change materials for thermal energy storage applications
Summary: Sodium sulfate decahydrate (Na2SO4.10H2O, SSD), a low-cost phase change material (PCM), can store thermal energy. However, phase separation and unstable energy storage capacity (ESC) limit its use.
