Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclodextrins in drug delivery
TL;DR: In the pharmaceutical industry cyclodextrins have mainly been used as complexing agents to increase aqueous solubility of poorly soluble drugs, and to increase their bioavailability and stability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies of curcumin and curcuminoids. XXVII. Cyclodextrin complexation: solubility, chemical and photochemical stability
TL;DR: The hydrolytic stability of curcumin under alkaline conditions was strongly improved by complex formation, while the photodecomposition rate was increased compared to aCurcumin solution in organic solvents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of cyclodextrin solubilization of drugs
TL;DR: The most common stoichiometric determination during formulation studies is 1:1, i.e. one drug molecule forms a complex with one cyclodextrin molecule, and the apparent stability constant (K1:1) of the 1:2 drug/cyclodextrins complexes calculated by the phase-solubility method is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial Chitosan and Chitosan Derivatives: A Review of the Structure-Activity Relationship.
Priyanka Sahariah,Már Másson +1 more
TL;DR: The antimicrobial chitosan derivatives have been classified on the basis of the type of functional group conjugated to the polymer backbone and the influence of the degree of substitution on the biological properties has been examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclodextrins in topical drug formulations: theory and practice
Thorsteinn Loftsson,Már Másson +1 more
TL;DR: It appears that cyclodextrins can only enhance topical drug delivery in the presence of water.
