128446-36-6 - Product Description:

Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD) (CAS: 128446-36-6), is a macrocyclic compound that can form inclusion complexes with a number of guest molecules.  It shows higher solubility in aqueous solutions and greater solubilizing and complexing power compared to the parent β-cyclodextrin.  MβCD can be used to enhance the enzyme activity and enantioselectivity of subtilizing enzyme in organic solvents.

128446-36-6 - Use:

Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD) (CAS: 128446-36-6), among common cyclodextrin derivatives, methylated cyclodextrins have greater surface tension. Pharmaceutical excipients, food additives, cosmetics industry.  
In food manufacturing, Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin is mainly used to eliminate peculiar smell, improve the stability of flavor and pigment, and enhance emulsification and moisture resistance in food manufacturing. Improving the taste of food is a good stabilizer and flavoring agent for the pharmaceutical, food and cosmetics manufacturing industries. In medicine, the solubility and bioavailability of drugs can be improved, the efficacy of drugs can be increased or the dosage can be reduced, the release rate of drugs can be adjusted or controlled, the side effects of drugs can be reduced, and the stability of drugs can be enhanced. Especially more effective for aqueous solutions of oil-soluble molecules. Increase the solubility of non-polar substances, such as fatty acids, lipids, vitamins and cholesterol, used in cell culture. Used in food, cosmetics, pesticides, daily chemical products, textile dyeing and finishing, printing, and ink. It has good viscosity reduction effect in coating thickener.
Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin is a randomly methylated form of the cyclic oligosaccharide β-Cyclodextrin. Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin contains seven D-(+)-glucopyranose units that contain randomized hydrogen or methyl groups. Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin has been used to improve the aqueous solubility of various compounds and to extract cholesterol from lipid membranes.
Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin is a cholesterol-removing agent mainly used for lipid raft disruption. It may also be used for detergent removal from protein-lipid-detergent ternary mixture to produce 2D membrane protein crystals due to its high solubility and affinity for detergents generally used in membrane protein chemistry.

128446-36-6 - Biological Activity:

Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD) (CAS: 128446-36-6), is a cholesterol remover, mainly used to destroy lipid raft. Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin can induce caspase-dependent apoptosis in PEL cells and inhibit the growth and infection of PEL cells without obvious adverse effects, showing potential effective anti-tumor activity.

128446-36-6 - Pharmaceutical Applications:

Methyl-β-Cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD) (CAS: 128446-36-6) has strong water and oil solubility, as the stromal molecule to include the complexes and to be used in including of drugs spices etc.
Me-β-CD can change the original natures of materials, in medical field, it can promote the dissolusion efficiency of the drugs, enhancing bioavailability and solubility of drugs, so that to reduce the doseut increase the efficacy.
Me-β-CD can adjust and controls the releasing of drugs, to enhance the stability. It can changes mmucosa sbsorption in drugs, specially for the oil soluble molecules it can be more effective to increase the water solubility.
