Hydrophobically Modified Celluloses as Novel Cholesterol-lowering Polymers

Hydrophobically modified celluloses were prepared by the esterification of monocarboxycellulose (MCC) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) with methanol, followed by the amino-de-alkoxylation of the methyl esters with n-octadecylamine. These cellulose derivatives were fed at 30 and 60 g/kg for 4 weeks t...
