Per(6-guanidino-6-deoxy)-cyclodextrins , and are novel derivatives, resulting from homogeneous introduction of the guanidino group at the primary side of alpha-, beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins. The products were obtained from the corresponding amino derivatives, as direct guanidinylation of the known bromo-cyclodextrins provided mixtures. The new compounds were fully characterized by NMR spectro...

Vesicles of cationic amphiphilic β-cyclodextrins have been immobilized on polycrystalline gold by exploiting the chemical affinity between their amino groups and Au atoms. The presence of cyclodextrins has been widely investigated by means of AFM, XPS, kelvin probe and electrochemical measurements. This multi-functional coating confers distinct electrochemical features such as pH-dependent beha...

Cyclodextrin glucanotransferases (CGTases) have attracted major interest from industry due to their unique capacity of forming large quantities of cyclic α-(1,4)-linked oligosaccharides (cyclodextrins) from starch. CGTases produce a mixture of cyclodextrins from starch consisting of 6 (α), 7 (β) and 8 (γ) glucose units. In an effort to identify the structural factors contributing to the evoluti...

The cyclodextrins have a wide range of applications in different areas of drug delivery and pharmaceutical industry due to their complexation ability and other versatile characteristics. The most common pharmaceutical application of cyclodextrin is to enhance the solubility, stability, safety and bioavailability of drug molecules. The purpose of this review is to discuss and summarize some of t...

The process of producing cyclodextrins from starch with cyclodextrin glucanotransferase from Bacillus megaterium has been studied. The effect of starch and enzyme concentrations was evaluated using optimal composite designs and the response surface methodology. Mathematical models describing the process in two overlapping areas of variation of the independent variables were developed. The model...

The main objective of the research work is to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of olmesartan medoxomil by complexation with -Cyclodextrins. The inclusion complexes were prepared by kneading method. The prepared complexes were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The FTIR and XRD spectra o...

diosmin, a vascular-protecting agent, is practically insoluble in water, and its oral absorption is limited by its extremely low dissolution rate. in this study, β-cyclodextrin (βcd) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (hpβcd) were obtained to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of diosmin. phase solubility studies of diosmin with βcd and hpβcd in distilled water were conducted to charac...

New psychoactive substances (NPS) count as substances, which are slightly modified compared to illicit drugs regarding their chemical structure circumvent law. Compared classical such heroin, cocaine, or amphetamine, they show similar effects, however, because of novelty there is few knowledge about side effects toxicity. NPS available different substance classes, among them chiral novel deriva...

Due to their unique structural, physical and chemical properties, cyclodextrins derivatives have been of great interest scientists researchers in both academia industry for over a century. Many the industrial applications arisen from ability encapsulate, either partially or fully, other molecules, especially organic compounds. Cyclodextrins are non-toxic oligopolymers glucose that help increase...
