General description

Heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin is a hydrophilic derivative of cyclodextrin that possesses the ability to effectively dissolve lipophilic drugs like steroid hormones, vitamins A, E, and K, etc. It can be utilized to increase the dissolution and bioavailability of weakly water-soluble pharmaceutical compounds.[1]

Application

Heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin may be used:
  • To measure the equilibrium constant of its complexes with various enantiomeric pairs of chiral nitroxides by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy.[2]
  • To study the crystal structure of its complex with n-butyl acrylate and isobornyl acrylate using X-ray diffraction (XRD).[3]
  • As a chiral selector to resolve amphetamine related drugs by capillary zone electrophoresis.[4]

Reactant involved in:
  • Physicochemical studies of inclusion complexes
  • Probing diffusion and single molecule interactions with reconstituted membrane proteins
  • Interactions with micelles causing micellar rupture
  • Studying cellular transport, used as a cell penetration enhancer
  • Physicochemical and biopharmaceutical improvement of drugs particularly with solubilization and stability
  • Interactions with cholesterol

Analysis Note

Impurities are over-methylated homologs, primarily hexakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/449/386/product-dating-information-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
