Abstract

Cyclodextrins (CDs) have been widely utilized for myriad applications due to their unique structural features such as hydrophobic cavity for inclusion complex formation and numerous hydroxyl groups for functionalization. In this review, we discuss various applications of CD-based molecules, polymers and nanomaterials. CD-based molecules have been developed for pharmaceutic applications and drug/gene carriers. CD-based polymers have been adopted for drug delivery, stimuli-responsive hydrogels and self-healing materials. CD hybrids with inorganic nanoparticles have been employed for stimuli-responsive carriers.
