Highly Enhanced Curcumin Delivery Applying Association Type Nanostructures of Block Copolymers, Cyclodextrins and Polycyclodextrins
Self-association type systems of polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide-polyethylene oxide block copolymers (Pluronic) were applied to enhance the aqueous solubility of curcumin.
Cyclodextrin-based materials used in oilfield
This review [1] introduces the characteristics of cyclodextrin-based materials, including cyclodextrin polymers, inclusion complexes and new cyclodextrin nanocomposites, and summarizes
Extraction of mycotoxin alternariol from red wine and from tomato juice with beta-cyclodextrin bead polymer
Alternariol (AOH) is a mycotoxin which occurs in wine and tomato products as contaminant. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are ring-shaped glucose oligomers.
Investigation of Cytotoxicity and Cell Uptake of Cationic Beta-Cyclodextrins as Valid Tools in Nasal Delivery
Cyclodextrin polymers have high applicability in pharmaceutical formulations due to better biocompatibility, solubility enhancement, loading capacity and controlled drug release
Effects of water matrix constituents on micropollutant removal by activated carbon and b-cyclodextrin polymer adsorbents
The performance of adsorbents for the removal of organic micropollutants from water can be influenced by the presence of water
Integration of homogeneous and heterogeneous advanced oxidation processes: Confined iron dancing with cyclodextrin polymer
A novel catalyst which integrates heterogeneous and homogenous Fenton reactions (oxidation of contaminants by hydroxyl radical produced by hydrogen peroxide
Effect of CD on the antiaging drug: rapamycin
Rapamycin (also known as sirolimus) is a macrolide compound produced by the bacterium Streptomyces hygroscopicus. It is immunosuppressant used to
