gamma-Cyclodextrin hydrate(CAS: 91464-90-3)

Gamma-Cyclodextrin hydrate is a cyclic oligosaccharide composed of seven glucose units. It has a hydrophilic exterior and a hydrophobic interior, making it useful for encapsulating hydrophobic compounds. It is primarily used in pharmaceuticals for drug delivery and in food science for improving the solubility and stability of various substances.

Gamma-Cyclodextrin hydrate is widely used in pharmaceuticals for enhancing drug solubility and stability, and in the food industry for improving the sensory and functional properties of food products. It is also used in research for encapsulating and controlled release of drugs and other compounds.

Gamma-Cyclodextrin hydrate is generally considered safe for its intended use. It is approved by regulatory agencies for use in food and pharmaceuticals. However, it is important to follow proper handling and storage guidelines to avoid inhalation or skin contact, which may cause irritation.

Gamma-Cyclodextrin hydrate should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct light and heat. It should be kept in a tightly closed container to protect it from moisture and air. Storage temperature should be maintained between 15-25°C to ensure its stability and prevent degradation.
