Cyclodextrins (ePub)

-->Cyclodextrins are an extremely versatile class of chemicals highly prized for their ability to incorporate a plethora of organic, inorganic and biologic guest molecules into their hydrophobic cavities and form host-guest inclusion complexes. As excellent molecular receptors, they have long been exploited in many important industries such as food and agriculture, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, textiles, analytical chemistry and enzyme mimics.Researchers, technicians and application specialists in many industries will appreciate this handy volume that systematically discusses how cyclodextrins are applied in their industries. Special attention is devoted to the preparation of inclusion complexes, novel properties of the resultant complexes, and details on applying those properties to industry. -->Contents: Introduction (Junrong Huang, Qi Yang, and Huayin Pu)General Methods for the Preparation of Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complexes (Jinpeng Wang, Haoran Fan, and Mengke Zhang)Applications in Food (Chao Yuan, Wangyang Shen, Bo Yu, and Xing Zhou)Applications in Agriculture (Jianwei Zhao and Shengjun Wu)Applications in Pharmaceuticals (Xiuting Hu and Yaoqi Tian)Applications in Cosmetics (Tao Feng, Haining Zhuang, and Na Yang)Applications in the Textile Industry (Jin Xu)Applications in Analytical Chemistry (Xuehong Li)Cyclodextrin-Based Enzyme Mimics (Aiquan Jiao) --> -->Readership: Researchers, technicians and application specialists in food and agriculture, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, textiles, analytical chemistry and environmental engineering industries. -->Keywords:Cyclodextrins;Preparation;Application;IndustryReview:Key Features:Shows researchers and technologists how to use cyclodextrins as host compounds and further promote related researchCovers seven fields in one volumeDiscusses the preparation of the inclusion complexes and the important properties of the resultant complexes are covered in detail
