12619-70-4 - Introduction
Cyclodextrin is a cyclic sugar molecule consisting of six glucose molecules. It has the following properties:
1. High solubility: Cyclodextrin has good solubility in water and can form a stable aqueous solution.
2. Colorless and tasteless: Cyclodextrin itself is colorless and tasteless, and will not change the sensory properties of the substance.
3. High stability: Cyclodextrin is stable under acid and alkali conditions, but may decompose under high temperature, strong acid or strong alkali conditions.
4. Ring structure: Due to its ring structure, cyclodextrin has a special cavity structure, which can accommodate molecules of different sizes and properties.
Cyclodextrins have a wide range of applications in many fields, including:
1. Drug carrier: Because of its cavity structure, cyclodextrin can be used as a drug carrier, which can increase the solubility, stability and bioavailability of drugs.
2. food additives: cyclodextrin can be used as food additives, used to improve taste, extend the shelf life of food, remove odor and enhance aroma.
3. Environmental pollution control: Cyclodextrin can be used for adsorption and separation of organic matter, heavy metal ions and harmful gases and other environmental pollutants.
4. Chemical analysis: Cyclodextrins can be used to separate and enrich the target substances in the sample to improve the sensitivity of separation and analysis.
The method for producing cyclodextrin is usually obtained by a microbial fermentation method. The safe use of cyclodextrins requires attention to the following:
1. Avoid contact with skin and eyes: cyclodextrin dust may be irritating to skin and eyes, so protective gloves and goggles should be worn during operation.
2. Avoid inhalation: Long-term inhalation of cyclodextrin dust may be harmful to the respiratory system and should be operated in a well-ventilated environment.
3. storage note: cyclodextrin should be stored in a dry, cool place, away from fire and strong acid and alkali.
