Synonyms: cycloheptaamylose, beta-Schardinger dextrin
CAS No: 68168-23-0
Beta-cyclodextrin (BCD) is a kind of oligosaccharides generated from starch under the action of Glucose transfers, with particular closed cartridge molecular structure. It can be used as inclusion substance for many kinds of materials.
In pharmaceuticals: Cyclodextrin are not irritant and offer distinct advantages such as the stabilisation of active compounds,reduction in votatility of drug molecules,and masking of malodours and bitter tastes.
In Foods and flavours: Cyclodextrin are used in food formulations for flavour protection or flavour delivery.The major benefits are stabilisation,odour control and process improvement upon conversion of a liquid ingredient to a solid form.it can be used extensively in Cosmetics, Agricultural and Chemical industries too.
