Synonym(s): (2-Hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin
CAS No.: 128446-35-5
Application: The solubility of lipophilic drugs increases linearly with the concentration of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HBC) in aqueous solution because of the complex between HBC and the drug. This guest-host type complex is formed between the drug and the non-polar cavity in the HBC that results in enhanced solubility. Solutions may be lyophilized to produce freely soluble powders. Non-toxic in rabbits and mice.
Packaging: 25 g in poly bottle
