Gels

Biopolymer

Biopolymers are natural polymers produced by the cells of living organisms.

Gel

A gel is a semi-solid that can have properties ranging from soft and weak to hard and tough. Bloom (test) and gel are gels.

See Bloom (test) and Gel

Gel point

In polymer chemistry, the gel point is an abrupt change in the viscosity of a solution containing polymerizable components.

See Bloom (test) and Gel point

Gelatin

Gelatin or gelatine is a translucent, colorless, flavorless food ingredient, commonly derived from collagen taken from animal body parts. Bloom (test) and gelatin are gels.

See Bloom (test) and Gelatin

Gelation

In polymer chemistry, gelation (gel transition) is the formation of a gel from a system with polymers. Bloom (test) and gelation are gels.

See Bloom (test) and Gelation

Molecular mass

The molecular mass (m) is the mass of a given molecule.

See Bloom (test) and Molecular mass

Peptide

Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.

See Bloom (test) and Peptide

Shore durometer

The Shore durometer is a device for measuring the hardness of a material, typically of polymers.

See Bloom (test) and Shore durometer

Softgel

A softgel is an oral dosage form for medicine in the form of a specialized capsule.

See Bloom (test) and Softgel

The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) is a pharmacopeia (compendium of drug information) for the United States published annually by the over 200-year old United States Pharmacopeial Convention (usually also called the USP), a nonprofit organization that owns the trademark and also owns the copyright on the pharmacopeia itself.
