It is not a coincidence that both chirality and noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in
nature and synthetic molecular systems. Noncovalent interactivity between chiral molecules …

Cyclodextrin (CD), a class of cyclic oligosaccharides with an external hydrophilic surface
and a central hydrophobic cavity is recognized as a promising pharmaceutical excipient due …

Objectives Drug pipelines are becoming increasingly difficult to formulate. This is punctuated
by both retrospective and prospective analyses that show that while 40% of currently …

Cyclodextrins are useful functional excipients that have enjoyed widespread attention and
use. The basis for this popularity from a pharmaceutical standpoint, is the ability of these …

Cyclodextrins were first described by Villiers in 1891. Schardinger laid the foundation of the
cyclodextrin chemistry in 1903–1911 and identified both α-and β-cyclodextrin. In the 1930s …

Cyclodextrins are useful functional excipients, which are being used in an ever-increasing
way to camouflage undesirable pharmaceutical characteristics, especially poor aqueous …

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are widely used as enabling pharmaceutical excipients, mainly as
solubilizing complexing agents. CDs are cyclic oligosaccharides with hydrophilic outer …

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are enabling pharmaceutical excipients that can be found in numerous
pharmaceutical products worldwide. Because of their favorable toxicologic profiles, CDs are …

Studies have shown that cyclodextrins form both inclusion and non-inclusion complexes and
that several different types of complexes can coexist in aqueous solutions. In addition, both …

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are abundantly explored in the field of medicines for the design of
various types of drug delivery systems. They are cyclic oligosaccharides carrying α (1, 4) …
