General description

γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) is a water-soluble cyclic octamer of D-glucose units linked via α(1→4) glycosidic bonds. Its ability to form several inclusion complexes with organic as well as inorganic compounds makes it a potential candidate in solid and solution state determinations.

Application

γ-Cyclodextrin hydrate may be used to form inclusion complexes with steviol glycosides, 1-propanol, tempone and di-tert-butyl nitroxide followed by their characterization by various analytical techniques.
Modifier used in experiments evaluating viability, integrity, and inflammation in genital epithelia upon exposure to pharmaceutical excipients and microbicides
