This gamma-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) derivative is a modified cyclic oligosaccharide composed of eight glucose units, featuring a larger cavity size than α- and β-cyclodextrins. This structural characteristic allows γ-CDs to form inclusion complexes with a wider range of guest molecules, making it particularly versatile in various industries. In the food sector, it is used as a carrier and stabilizer for flavors, fat-soluble vitamins, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, protecting volatile compounds from evaporation. In pharmaceuticals, it enhances the solubility and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs and, thanks to its larger ring size, allows for the encapsulation of larger molecules or even entire drug molecules. γ-CDs and derivatives are also used for environmental remediation and, in analytical chemistry, for the extraction and concentration of target substances.

Inositol is a member of the B-vitamin family and is classified as a sugar alcohol. It has a structural similarity to glucose and can be synthesized by plants, bacteria, and mammals. Inositol is found in high concentrations in the brain and liver. Inositol has been shown to inhibit guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and ryanodine receptor channels in HL-60 cells. It also inhibits cancer cell proliferation and suppresses ovarian activity. Inositol appears to work by binding to the inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor on the surface of cells, thereby inhibiting intracellular calcium release from its storage site within the endoplasmic reticulum. The effects of inositol are mediated by dinucleotide phosphate or p-nitrophenyl phosphate.
