Inclusion with Antimicrobial Agents. Cyclodextrin inclusion complexes can be formed in solutions, in a solid state as well as when cyclodextrins are linked to various surfaces.
They can act as permanent or temporary hosts for small molecules. Inclusion in cyclodextrins exerts a profound effect on the physicochemical properties of guest molecules which are
not achievable otherwise.74 The principal advantages of natural cyclodextrins as carriers for biologically active guests, such as drugs, insect repellents, and antimicrobial agents, etc., are as follows
