Why Cyclodextrins?
Definition: Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic oligosaccharides obtained by the enzymatic conversion of starch.
α-cyclodextrin: six sugar ring molecule β-cyclodextrin: seven sugar ring molecule γ-cyclodextrin: eight sugar ring molecule
Cyclodextrins and drugs (1995-2003): 1800 CD-drug paper715 patent
About 30 drugs, e.g. Cetirizine-BCD (Cetirizin)Diclofenac-BCD (Voltaren ophtha)Omeprazole-BCD (Omebeta)
Why Database?
Database in general
• Integrate current knowledge on a specific research area • Aimed at bringing together information from diverse source• Provide easy and fast way for data mining
Our aim at creating cyclodextrin database
• Relatively few experimental conditions in order to give a quick, rough overview on cyclodextrin binding– if you need every data, read the paper• Data collected- should be used for prediction as well

Prediction module: Parameters influencing cyclodextrin complexation have been explored – in silico prediction with high prediction rate
Why Chemaxon?
cxcalc input.mol majorms -H 2.0 -f smiles > output.smi # 2-es pH a 2.0
molconvert -3:c30[hydrogenize] mol input.smi -o output.mol
Or:
molconvert -3:c2[hydrogenize] mol input.mol -o output.mol
Molecular modelling – plenty of file formats (Babel)Protonation at a given pH? Smiles to 3D conversion?
