Q

What are the organic colloids?

A

Single phase system,Carbomer

17
Q

What is alginic acid?

A

Natural gelling agent that is prone to microbrial growth,

18
Q

What is Tragacanth?

A

Natural gelling agent that is used fora stable PH

19
Q

What is Methylcellulose?

A

Semi-synthetic cellulose derivative that maintains viscosity over wide ph range,

This makes thinner gels htough and hydrates in HOT water

20
Q

What is HPMC?

A

Makes thick boi gels
Semi-synthetic cellulose derivative gelling agent

21
Q

What is Carbomers or Carbopol?

A

Synthetic gelling agent that thickens AND requires PH neutralizers

When it gets thick it gets ph spicy

22
Q

What is Poloxamers?

A

Synthetic gelling agent that forms reverse thermal gels!

23
Q

What are colloidal gold, sulfur, and silver examples of?

A

Lyophobic colloids

24
Q

What are the 5 Viscosity modifiers for suspensions?

PWHAC

A

Polysaccharides
Water soluble cellulose derivatives
Hydrated Silicates
Acrylic acid polymers
Colloidal silicin dioxide

25
Q

Types of bioreactors

A

Liquid and solid state

26
Q

Low concentrations of phospholipids and surfactants have been shown to?

A

Extert a fibrillation-inhibitory effect

27
Q

What is the sweeter than sucrose value for cyclamate?

A

30 times

28
Q

What is the sweeter than surcose value for saccharin?

A

300x

29
Q

What is less sweet then sugar?

A

Sorbitol, mannitol, aspartame

30
