:Acetyl-β-cyclodextrin
Description:
Acetyl-β-cyclodextrin is a modified derivative of β-cyclodextrin, which is a cyclic oligosaccharide composed of seven glucose units linked by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. The acetylation process enhances its solubility in organic solvents and improves its ability to form inclusion complexes with various guest molecules, making it valuable in pharmaceutical and food applications. This compound exhibits a toroidal structure, allowing it to encapsulate hydrophobic substances, thereby enhancing their stability and bioavailability. Acetyl-β-cyclodextrin is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in food and pharmaceuticals, and it has been studied for its potential in drug delivery systems, where it can improve the solubility and release profiles of poorly soluble drugs. Additionally, it possesses favorable properties such as low toxicity and biocompatibility, making it suitable for various applications in the biomedical field. Its unique characteristics stem from the balance between its hydrophilic exterior and hydrophobic cavity, which facilitates interactions with a wide range of compounds.

Acetyl-β-cyclodextrin
CAS:This beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) derivative is a functionalized cyclic oligosaccharide composed of seven glucose units, characterized by a hydrophilic exterior and a lipophilic cavity (bigger than α-CD and smaller than γ-CDs), which allows it to encapsulate various guest molecules. This structural feature facilitates its use in multiple applications, including pharmaceuticals, food enhancement, and cosmetics. In the pharmaceutical industry, it enhances the solubility and stability of poorly water-soluble drugs, improving their bioavailability and efficacy while also masking unpleasant tastes. The food sector utilizes it as a stabilizer for flavors, colors, and nutrients, extending shelf life by protecting sensitive ingredients from degradation. In cosmetics, it serves as a complexing agent for fragrances and active components, ensuring their stability and controlled release. Its use expands to many other fields, including nanotechnology for drug delivery systems, environmental remediation for extracting organic pollutants, textiles for slow-release fragrances, and analytical chemistry for chiral separation.Formula:C42Hn)O35·(C2H3O)nPurity:Min. 98 Area-%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:1,387.21 g/mol
