Cyclodextrin description |
---|
Cyclodextrins (similar to the larger cycloamyloses, which are typically composed of at least 17 units) are a family of compounds made up of sugar molecules bound together in a ring (cyclic oligosaccharides). * Cyclodextrins are produced from starch by enzymatic conversion. They are used in food, pharmaceutical, drug delivery, and chemical industries, as well as agriculture and environmental engineering. α-Cyclodextrin is a soluble dietary fiber used as an ingredient in commercial food products. * Cyclodextrins are composed of 5 or more α-D-glucopyranoside units linked 1->4, as in amylose (a fragment of starch). The largest cyclodextrin contains 32 1,4-anhydroglucopyranoside units, while as a poorly characterized mixture, at least 150-membered cyclic oligosaccharides are also known. Typical cyclodextrins contain a number of glucose monomers ranging from six to eight units in a ring, creating a cone shape:* α (alpha)-cyclodextrin: 6-membered sugar ring molecule * β (beta)-cyclodextrin: 7-membered sugar ring molecule * γ (gamma)-cyclodextrin: 8-membered sugar ring molecule |
