Comprecel® M101 is a pharmaceutical excipient derived from nature’s most abundant and renewable raw material-wood pulp. The wood pulp is depolymerized by acid hydrolysis and turned from a fibrous material to a white freely-flowing powder. Comprecel® is a unique & versatile ingredient, and widely used as a key ingredient in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical supplement applications, primarily as binder/filler/diluent/disintegrant in tablet and capsule formulation in direct compression, dry granulation or wet granulation process. It is also used in personal care and food products as well.
