α-Cyclodextrin (hydrate)
α-Cyclodextrin is a cone-shaped oligosaccharide with a hydrophobic cavity and hydrophilic exterior, enabling it to form inclusion complexes that enhance solubility and stability. It is widely used in pharmaceutical research for drug delivery, in food science as an encapsulant, and in chemical separations, with applications in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
