Introduction to CELLETS® case studies
CELLETS® case studies show how microcrystalline cellulose spheres support pharmaceutical research, nutrition, and drug delivery. These studies highlight the versatility of CELLETS® as starter cores for controlled and modified release. They also demonstrate their role as food-grade carriers and solid markers in biological studies. Therefore, by reviewing CELLETS® case studies, it becomes clear how these particles advance drug targeting, improve pharmaco-kinetics, and enable innovation in both human and animal health.
A list of highly-rated scientific publications
MCC starter beads are frequently used in scientific publications. Main research is established in pharmaceutical applications, but we also identify CELLETS® in non-pharma research activities, such as in nutra, food and cosmetics. Impressively, these pellets help supporting young researchers in publishing their first poster, paper, publication in renowned journals and conferences. See the publication list here.
Recent applications of CELLETS® in pharmaceutical innovations
CELLETS® case studies reveal several pharmaceutical breakthroughs. Patents on pyridinone derivatives and enteric-coated lactoferrin use CELLETS® to deliver active compounds directly to the small intestine. In addition, they shield sensitive ingredients from stomach acid. Research on hyperhidrosis and gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) also shows how CELLETS® enable modified-release systems. Moreover, they improve pharmacokinetics in fed conditions. See more here.
CELLETS® in nutrition and gut health research
CELLETS® case studies also explore nutrition and gut health. A food-grade delivery system with vitamin B2 uses CELLETS® as the foundation for colon-targeted release. As a result, nearly all of the vitamin is released exactly where it benefits gut function most. In addition, CELLETS® offer a safe, stable base for multi-unit particle systems that enhance nutritional therapies. See more here.
Scientific validation and practical insights from CELLETS® case studies
CELLETS® case studies provide strong scientific validation. For instance, in vitro tests confirm their effectiveness in targeted release. Furthermore, research in broilers uses CELLETS® as solid markers to track caecal influx. Comprehensive literature reviews also reinforce their credibility. In addition, nutritional tables and AI-based assessments show CELLETS® are widely accepted as reliable excipients. Consequently, these case studies demonstrate their broad value in pharmaceutical technology and nutrition science. See more here.
