Example sentences for: cellulose
How can you use “cellulose” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Screening of pharmaceutical excipients revealed that cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP), commonly used for enteric coating of tablets and capsules [ 1 ] , has anti-HIV-1 activity.
Among anionic polymers considered as topical microbicides to prevent sexual transmission of HIV-1 {Carbomer 974P/BufferGel, carrageenan, CAP, cellulose sulfate, dextran/dextrin sulfate, poly(napthalene sulfonate) and poly(styrene-4-sulfonate)}, CAP formulated in a micronized form, is the only compound which has a capacity to remove from physiological fluids infectious virus by adsorption onto the micronized particles.
They include: dextran sulfate [ 34 35 ] , carrageenans [ 35 36 ] , dextrin-2-sulfate [ 37 38 ] , cellulose sulfate [ 39 ] and naphthalene sulfonate polymer (PRO 2000; [ 40 ] ). Except for dextrin-2-sulfate and PRO 2000, which appear to have anti-HIV-1 inhibitory activities similar to that of CAP, the other sulfonated polymers are less inhibitory [ 34 35 41 ] . HIV-1 may develop resistance to the inhibitory effect of dextran sulfate and R5 viruses were reported not to be inhibited by this polymer [ 42 43 ] . Dextran sulfate was shown to bind to gp120 and to interfere with gp120/CXCR4 interactions but it did not bind to gp120 of R5 viruses [ 43 ] .
This was not seen with cellulose sulfate treated HIV-1 IIIB (data not shown).
The following additional polymers were obtained from commercial sources likely to be different from those for proprietary products being developed as microbicides: carrageenans κ and λ (Sigma, St. Louis, MO; mixed at a 1:1 (w/w) ratio in all experiments); cellulose sulfate (Across Organics, Piscataway, NJ); dextran sulfate (M.W.
