Characterization of alpha-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes with trans-cinnamic acid in an acid-based beverage system
… Due to cinnamic acid's solubility issues, α-cyclodextrin was used as a host molecule to form an inclusion complex with the cinnamic acid molecule. The cinnamic acid: α-cyclodextrin inclusion complex was then characterized using phase solubility analysis, proton nuclear magnetic resonance …

Synthesis and Study of Biomimetic Ion Channels: (1) Toward the Development of a Cyclic Peptide-Based Redox-Gated Channel, and (2) Investigations Into the Effect of Pore Size on the Ion Selectivity of an Aminocyclodextrin Channel
… pore size and ion selectivity, a channel with an alpha-cyclodextrin macrocycle was synthesized and its transport properties were compared with those of an analogous channel with a larger beta-cyclodextrin pore. The anion transport profile of the alpha-cyclodextrin channel (ClO 4- > I- > Br- > NO3- …

Sorption Behavior of an Aliphatic Series of Aldehydes in the Presence of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Blends Containing Aldehyde Scavenging Agents
… adipamide) (nylon MXD6), D-sorbitol, or alpha-cyclodextrin reduced the concentration of each aldehyde in solution by 21 to 90% after 14 days of exposure. D-sorbitol and alpha-cyclodextrin aldehyde scavenging PET films were the most effective treatments for the reduction of aldehydes from …

Hydrolytic cleavage of p-nitrophenyl esters of N-protected amino acids in the presence of cyclodextrins : transition state stabilization
… (CBZ-Esters) in basic solution containing $\alpha$-cyclodextrin, $\beta$-cyclodextrin, or $\gamma$-cyclodextrin, ($\alpha$-CD, $\beta$-CD, or $\gamma$-CD) were studied. Most of the cleavage reactions occur through conventional 1:1 (ester:CD) complexes. In some cases, a second cleavage process …

Sustainable Nanotechnology: Life Cycle Thinking in Gold Nanoparticle Production and Recycling
… inclusion complex formation facilitated by alpha-cyclodextrin. This recycling approach involved room temperature conditions and did not require the toxic cyanide or mercury commonly used in the selective recovery of gold. A major advantage offered by this approach for selective gold recovery …

Functional Supramolecular Hydrogels Mediated by Host-Guest Chemistry
… Several high-impact applications involving cyclodextrin (CD) mediated hydrogels have been reported; however, there are still a lot of structure-property relationships that need to be understood to gain a full understanding of these materials. Within the younger field of hydrogels crosslinked …

Nutritional evaluation of α-cyclodextrin using canine, hamster, and in vitro models
… was to characterize the nutritional effects of α-cyclodextrin (ACD) using in vitro, canine, and hamster models. Study 1 evaluated the composition of ACD, validated select fat analysis techniques as related to ACD-fat complexes, and evaluated the gastrointestinal tolerance, total tract nutrient …
