Effect of Sulfobutylether-β-CD on Silver Nanoparticles Synthesis and Stability in aqueous solution
An innovative application of sulfobutylether-β-CD (SBE-βCD) regarding the preparation of spherical and monodispersed silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was recently described [1].
Beta-Cyclodextrin/L-Arginine/Au Nanomotors for Atherosclerosis
Most of the current non-pharmacological treatment strategies for atherosclerosis (AS) suffer from poor penetration into the plaque and only aim
Effect of Soluplus® on γ-Cyclodextrin Solubilization of Irbesartan and Candesartan and Their Nanoaggregates Formation
The poor aqueous solubility of irbesartan (IRB) and candesartan cilexetil (CAC) may hamper their bioavailability when orally or topically administered.
Aggregation versus inclusion complexes to solubilize drugs with cyclodextrins. A case study using sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrins and remdesivir
Using MD simulations, the possible role of SBE-β-CDs aggregates in the solubilization of remdesivir was studied. Both the effect of
