Hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) is a chemically modified cyclic oligosaccharide produced via alkaline catalysis of beta-cyclodextrin with propylene oxide. Its molecular formula is C42H70O35 and CAS No. 94618-12-1, serving as a critical solubility enhancer in pharmaceutical formulations.
Store in cool, dry conditions below 25°C to prevent degradation. While generally safe, strict purity grades are required for injectable applications to avoid renal toxicity risks associated with impurities.
