Abstract

Cyclodextrin, a cyclic oligosaccharide, has a hydrophobic center that binds to different ligands making it a highly attractive molecule for several industries. It is the goal of this study to establish a process in which cyclodextrins chemical specificity to different ligands can be determined.
