Interaction of Prostaglandin E1 with α-Cyclodextrin in Aqueous Systems: Stability of the Inclusion Complex

TL;DR: Nuclear magnetic resonance measurements have been made to study the interaction of PGE1 with alpha-CD and prove that only weak interaction forces are operative and that complete dissociation occurs upon dilution.

Complexation of 6-ACYL-O-β-Cyclodextrin derivatives with steroids - effects of chain length and substitution degree

TL;DR: In this paper, 6-acyl-o-β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) derivatives with different chain length and substitution degree were synthesized by esterifying the primary hydroxyl groups at 6-position of β-CD with various acyl chlorides.

Aluminium β‐Cyclodextrin Sulphate as a Stabilizer and Sustained‐release Carrier for Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor

TL;DR: In this paper, the water-insoluble aluminium salt of beta-cyclodextrin sulphate (Al.beta-CyD-Sul) was used as stabilizer and sustained-release carrier for recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF).

Hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin increases the aqueous solubility and stability of pilocarpine prodrugs.

TL;DR: The solubility of the prodrugs was shown to increase markedly in phase-solubility studies and the degradation rate of prodrug in stability studies was show to be slower in the l:2-complex than in thel:l-complex and the relative amounts of complex species were found to be dependent on CD concentration.
