Beta-Cyclodextrin is widely used in the pharmaceutical food cosmetic and chemical industries to improve the solubility stability and bioavailability of various compounds by forming inclusion complexes with suitable molecules.

The purpose of beta-cyclodextrin is to encapsulate suitable molecules within its cavity thereby improving their stability reducing unwanted odors or tastes and enhancing the solubility or controlled release of certain active ingredients.

Beta-Cyclodextrin is a cyclic oligosaccharide composed of seven glucose units linked together in a ring structure with a relatively hydrophobic inner cavity and a hydrophilic outer surface.
