The inclusion of volatile derivatives of benzene and cyclohexane in β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), hydroxypropyl-β-CD, and hydrophilic β-CD-thioethers was investigated by static headspace gas chromatography (HS-GC) and molecular modelling. The obtained binding constants strongly increase with the amount of space filling of the CD cavity and the salt concentration. β-CD thioethers show a 3-10 times high...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the byproducts of the incomplete combustion of carbon-based fuels, and have high affinity towards DNA strands, ultimately exerting their carcinogenic effects. They are ubiquitousenvironmental contaminants,and can accumulate on tissues due to their lipophilic nature. In this article, we describe a novel concept for PAH removal from aqueous solutions us...

glipizide has been found to form inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin (β-cd) in solution and in solid state. the present study was undertaken to determine a suitable method for scaling up glipizide-β-cd inclusion complex formation and to evaluate the effect of some parameters on the efficiency of complexation. the solid inclusion complexes of glipizide and β-cd were prepared at a molar ratio...

The present investigation reports the various pharmacokinetic parameters of immediate release aceclofenac tablets incorporating its inclusion complex with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin. The tablets were prepared using aceclofenac: hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin in a 1:1 molar ratio by the direct compression method (TKN). The results were compared with those of the marketed brand (MKT) and pure dru...

The inclusion complexes of cyclodextrins (CDs) with flavones in aqueous solution were investigated by phase solubility measurements. The effect of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl) β-cyclodextrin (DM-β-CD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) on the aqueous solubility of three flavones, namely, chrysin, apigenin and luteolin was investigated, respectively. Solubility enh...

Icariin is a bioactive herbal ingredient isolated from Herba epimedii, which has been widely used for the treatment of osteoporosis and male sexual dysfunction in traditional Chinese medicine. The major objective of this work is to investigate the different enhancing effects of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) on the intestinal absorption of icariin, and to ident...

Abstract: Objectives: Female population frequently seeks medical consultation for the vaginal candidiasis. Voriconazole (VOR) is a BCS class II antifungal drug with low aqueous solubility and hence inclusion complex was formulated using Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD). The incorporated into mucoadhesive tablet Chitosan Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC K100). Materials Methods: A 32 ful...
