The purpose of this study was to produce oil in water Nano-emulsion by ultrasonication, and investigate the influence of Inulin and β-cyclodextrin on the prosperities of Nano-emulsion and morphology of spray dried microcapsules. The results showed that emulsion droplet size in samples containing β-cyclodextrin (8.28±0.11 nm) was less than Inulin samples (97.12±4.2 nm). Considering SEM photos, β...

In situ growth of cyclodextrin-based metal-organic frameworks (CD-MOFs) is investigated for the effective fabrication MOF composites through vapor diffusion method combined with O2 plasma treatment. The rate γ-CD-MOFs on poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers (CD-MOFs–PET) determined 136 h, and CD-MOFs-PET 24 h time shows highest surface area without crystal deformation. specific 142.88 m2 g−1, wh...

We study the asymptotic behaviour in terms of Γ-convergence of the following one dimensional energy

This article reports the alteration of the excited state photophysics of a molecular rotor, namely 9-(dicyano-vinyl)julolidine (DCVJ), which has been extensively used to report protein aggregation and protein conformational changes, by the various cavity sizes of cyclodextrin (CD) macrocyclic hosts, with the help of steady state, time-resolved fluorescence techniques. It is observed that, in th...

Single-ion magnets (SIMs) are potential building blocks of novel quantum computing devices. Unique magnetic properties of SIMs require effective separation of magnetic ions and can be tuned by even slight changes in their coordination sphere geometry. We show that an additional level of tailorability in the design of SIMs can be achieved by organizing magnetic ions into supramolecular architect...

Nonviral gene delivery suffers from a number of limitations including short transgene expression times and low transfection efficiency. In this study, we examined whether polypseudorotaxanes (PPRXs) of polyethylene glycol (PEG, molecular weight: 2,000)-grafted α-cyclodextrin (α-CyD)/polyamidoamine dendrimer conjugate (PEG-α-CDE) with CyDs have the potential for the novel sustained release syste...

Fluorescent γ-cyclodextrin derivatives, modified using N-phenyl-x-anthracenecarboxamido (ACs; x = 9, 1), were synthesized and investigated using fluorescence and UV-vis spectroscopy. Fluorescence enhancements of ACs were observed up to 12-fold by the addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) below the critical micellar concentration (CMC). In the presence of a nonionic surfactant, such as Trit...

Sugammadex sodium is a modified γ-cyclodextrin with a very high affinity for rocuronium and, to a lesser extent, vecuronium molecules. In vivo administration results in immediate encapsulation of rocuronium and vecuronium, resulting in termination of neuro- muscular blockade, usually within 3 minutes. This new neuromuscular blocking agent is specific for the aminosteroidal neuromuscular blockin...

Synthetic models of bZIP transcription factors have been developed with the capability of specific DNA recognition. Our design is based on the CuAAC mediated conjugation of basic region Leucine Zipper peptides to different derivatives of α, β and γ-cyclodextrins equipped with azide functionalities. Thorough optimization of reaction conditions allowed convergent and simultaneous conjugation of t...
