Today’s cyclodextrin:
One of the greatest features of CDs is that with a proper application (especially when the local CD concentration is relatively high), they can not only improve the solubility but also the permeability of compounds. For example, in the case of a peroral application, let’s say an orally disintegrating tablet. Not to mention that their taste masking potential is also of use in this case. 3 birds with one stone!
In this paper, you can find a great example of such a smart application. If you are interested in developing similar formulations, check out the first steps here: Formulation development – www.carbohydesolutions.com
