Abstract

Dimeric β-cyclodextrins (β-CD) were prepared from the reaction of native β-CD with epichlorohydrin under basic conditions, and the effects on the diacetylene (DA) and polydiacetylene (PDA) liposomes have been investigated. Vesicular DA was solubilized in the presence of dimeric β-CD with the consequent inhibition of polymerization. The result is attributed to the formation of a complex between dimeric β-CD and DA liposomes, and it is clearly differentiated from that of monomeric β-CD. Furthermore, the ordered supramolecular structure of PDA was perturbed by the dimeric β-CD, which was detected from the visible color change. Finally, the morphological characteristics and size of PDA in the absence and presence of dimeric β-CD were examined using transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering The results show fused structure of size more than 200 nm along with the deformation of the vesicles, and they represent a novel phenomenon of liposome structure induced by complexation with dimeric β-CD. The evaluated physicochemical characteristics can be applied to the development of carbohydrate-based detergents.
