Spectrophotometric estimation of the accessible inclusion sites of β-cyclodextrin fixed on cotton fabrics using phenolic dyestuffs

Abstract

With the known stoichiometry of the complex formation of phenolic dyes with β-cyclodextrin, spectrophotometric study of complexation and decomplexation of these dyestuffs in cavities of cyclodextrins enables us to determine the accessible cyclodextrin sites quantitatively.
