If the amylose fraction of starch is degraded by glucosyltransferases, one or several turns of
the amylose helix are hydrolyzed off and their ends are joined together, thereby producing …

Chiral recognition by cyclodextrins is of considerable importance, especially for
pharmaceutical industry, in view of the possible side effects of the second enantiometer of …

This review examines the literature concerning the thermal properties of natural and
semisynthetic cyclodextrins and their inclusion compounds. Particular emphasis is given to …

Buried water molecules and the water molecules in the active-site gorge are analyzed for
five crystal structures of acetylcholinesterase from Torpedo californica in the resolution …

Cyclodextrins, CyDs, are macrocyclic oligosugars most commonly composed of 6, 7, or 8
glucosidic units bearing the names a-1, b-2 and g-3 CyD, respectively [1–3]. Other, usually …

For many years on the basis of X-ray studies cyclodextrins were considered to have a rigid
truncated-cone structure although this concept was incompatible with the ease of their …

Theophylline is known to undergo vapor phase induced hydrate–anhydrate
pseudopolymorphic transformations, which can affect its bioavailability. In this work, the …

Understanding the atomic level interactions and the resulting structural characteristics is
required for developing beta-cyclodextrin (βCD) derivatives for pharmaceutical and other …

Cellulose derivatives are the most frequently used polymers in formulations of
pharmaceutical products for controlled drug delivery. The main aim of the present work was …

The apparent molar volumes (V ϕ, S) of a homologous series of hydrocarbon (hc)(C x H2 x+
1CO2Na, x= 2, 5− 9, 11, 13) and perfluorocarbon (fc)(C x F2 x+ 1CO2Na, x= 1, 3, 4, 6− 9) …
