About Alpha-Cyclodextrin
α-Cyclodextrin is a hexasaccharide derived from glucose. It is related to the β- and γ- cyclodextrins, which contain seven and eight glucose units, respectively. All cyclodextrins are white, water-soluble solids with minimal toxicity. Cyclodextrins tend to bind other molecules in their quasi-cylindrical interiors.
