The complex [Ru(bpy)2L] , where bpy = 2,2’-bipyridine, L = 4-(phenylethynyl)-2,2’-bipyridine, was prepared in its racemic and resolved forms (and . The phenylethynyl unit on the bipyridine for the complex acts as a binding site for -cyclodextrin in water (1:1 complex, K = 3390 M) or -cyclodextrin (2:1 complex, K1 = 887 M , K2 = 8070 M ). The presence of the cyclodextrin provides partial p...

Abstract Micropollutants are persistent and hazardous materials in low concentrations (ng L −1 –μg ), including substances such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products industrial chemicals. The advancement of analytical chemistry has allowed for the detection micropollutants; however, an efficient economical treatment solution is yet to be installed. Fungal laccase been a successful biocatal...

Multifunctional nanocomposites Ag/Al2O3/TiO2@β-cyclodextrin-graphene oxide (AATG) incorporating graphene sheets, TiO2, and Ag/Al2O3 nanoparticles were prepared in two steps. We benefited from the inherent properties of β-cyclodextrin to create a stable aqueous solution capable self-assembling situ grown TiO2 on nanosheets. catalysts with high surface-to-volume ratio by combustion technique urea...

A green chiral lab-on-a-chip cyclodextrin-based microchip electrophoretic method was developed for enantioseparation of baclofen (BCN) and phenylalanine (Phe) enantiomers the first time. All BCN Phe were offline labeled with 4-fluoro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD-F) or fluorescein-5-isothiocyanate (FITC) fluorogenic reagents prior to microfluidic injection in a dynamically coated polymethylmethacryl...

In healthy older subjects, the glycaemic response to carbohydrate-containing meals is dependent on gastric emptying and intestinal absorption; when the latter is slowed, the magnitude of the rise in glucose is attenuated. The oligosaccharide a-cyclodextrin has been reported to diminish the glycaemic response to starch in young adults; this effect has been attributed to the inhibition of pancrea...

Klebsiella oxytoca M5a1 has the capacity to transport and to metabolize alpha-, beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins. Cyclodextrin transport is mediated by the products of the cymE, cymF, cymG, cymD, and cymA genes, which are functionally homologous to the malE, malF, malG, malK, and lamB gene products of Escherichia coli. CymE, which is the periplasmic binding protein, has been overproduced and purif...

Trans-dehydrocrotonin has antiulcerogenic and antitumor activities. A complex of beta-cyclodextrin with dehydrocrotonin was developed to improve the delivery of dehydrocrotonin. Complex in solid state was evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). X-ray diffraction and scanning elec...
