Cyclodextrins and their complexes constitute a fascinating subject that, due to its complexity and specific chemical structure. This great attention makes today's CD science and technology extremely involved in a large number of important areas of research covering both basic and applied science in chemistry and biology. Their ability to modify the behavior of trapped guests is being used for example, in chemistry, biology, food, pharmacy/medicine and agriculture. The poor dissolution of the relatively insoluble drugs has for long been a problem in the formulation of oral dosage forms. This limits the aspects such as absorption and bioavailability. Similarly the obnoxious taste of unpalatable drug is also not accepted by paediatric and geriatric patients. This problem is more apparent when drinking water is not easily available to the patient taking medicine. This book will appeal to people studying or working in the field of supramolecular chemistry.
