General Description
(2-Hydroxypropyl)-α-cyclodextrin is a hydroxyalkyl derivative of cyclodextrin, which is generally used as a substitute of α-cyclodextrin for potential application in food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. It may be used as a parenteral drug carrier on account of its attractive characteristics such as: a greater extent of solubility in water, high dissolution capacity for weakly soluble analytes, and low toxicity.
