Methyl cellulose is occasionally added to hair shampoos, tooth pastes and liquid soaps, to generate their characteristic thick consistency. This is also done for foods, for example ice cream [5] or croquette. Methyl cellulose is also an important emulsifier, preventing the separation of two mixed liquids because it is an emulsion stabilizer.
Mucin is a glycoprotein prevalent in natural saliva, and lab-made mucin can closely replicate the characteristics of natural saliva by forming a protective and lubricative film on oral surfaces. [11] Mucin has an elevated adsorption capacity compared to carboxymethyl cellulose-based formulations, which improves lubrication.
Carboxymethyl cellulose, along with other emulsifiers, is suggested as a possible cause of inflammation of the gut , through alteration of the human gastrointestinal microbiota, and has been suggested as a triggering factor in inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.
It can be absorbed into the intestinal wall [4] and may cause foreign-body granulomatous reactions in some rat species. These reactions might not occur in humans, however. [9] Some evidence suggests that it engenders a lack of carcinogenicity. [10] If liquid paraffin enters the lungs, it can cause lipoid pneumonia. [4]
