Description:

SBE-β-CD is a sulfobutylether?β-cyclodextrin?derivative used as an excipient or a formulating agent to increase the solubility of poorly soluble agents.

For research use only.?

In Vitro:

SBE-β-CD is a chemically modified β-CD that is a cyclic hydrophilic oligosaccharide which is negatively charged in aqueous media. β-CD functioned is a solubilizer only at low concentrations, whereas SBE7-β-CD exhibits strong solubilizing effects over a wide concentration range.

In Vivo:

?SBE-β-CD is a derivatized form of β-cyclodextrin that has been developed as a safe and effective solubilizing agent for drugs being administered by parenteral and other routes (including oral). SBE-β-CD is a cyclic carbohydrate comprised of seven glucose molecules; the resulting truncated cone-like structure being further derivatized with an average of seven sulfobutyl ether groups.
