In vitro gelling capacity.

Methyl cellulose concentration (%) Gelling capacity Gelation temperature (°c) Gelation time (m)
0.25 + No gelation up to 45 °C temperature
0.50 + No gelation up to 45 °C temperature
0.75 ++ 39 6
1.00 ++ 32 4

(+), gels after few minutes, dispersed rapidly.

(++), gelation immediate, remains for few hours.
