In this collaborative teamwork, the cyclodextrins (CDs) are reviewed as important building blocks for polymeric systems in biomedical and environmental
Thiolated oligomers and polymers, also known as thiomers, are valuable tools for non-parenteral drug delivery.1-3 Due to the cysteine-rich segments
Ginkgo seeds, which are abundant in starch, remain significantly underutilized, contributing to substantial resource waste and environmental pollution. This study
CDs can bind to the active site of pancreatic α-amylase and competitively inhibit the enzyme. Adding 0.100 mg CD/mg native
Starches are a major constituent of staple foods and are the main source of energy in the human diet (55-70%).
The role of CDs in high carbohydrate-containing, starchy foods are reviewed and discussed. Both the effects as functional ingredients affecting
Polysaccharide substrates loaded with antioxidant and antimicrobial compounds, effectively protected by cyclodextrin moieties, can be a long-lasting solution to confer
Toruzyme® is a food-grade amylolytic enzyme (produced by Novozymes) that: • Enables synthesis of cyclodextrins from starch • Provides flexibility
