Product Description
Product Description
Alpha-Cyclodextrin (as known as called α-dextrin, α-cyclodextrin, α-CD, alphadextrin, alpha cyclodextrin). It is a series of cyclic oligosaccharides produced by amylose under the action of cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase produced by Bacillus.
Structural Characteristics of Cyclodextrin
- Formed by multiple glucose units cyclically linked at both terminals of dextrin.
- Exists as ultrafine nanoparticles.
- Cyclic structure features lipophilic inner cavity and hydrophilic outer surface.

Functions & Applications
- α-Cyclodextrin is soluble multifunctional dietary fiber for fiber fortification, flavor masking and emulsification.
- Applied in foods & drinks, α-Cyclodextrin binds fats to lower fat absorption; it serves as natural weight-management supplement instead of synthetic slimming drugs.
- Its surfactant property enables emulsifying use in mayonnaise.
- It works as whipping fiber for desserts and candies.
- α-Cyclodextrin bulks food across wide pH values, suitable for both full-fat and fat-free desserts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Alpha-Cyclodextrin serves as a multifunctional, soluble dietary fiber. It is widely used in food and beverage industries for fat-binding, emulsification, whipping enhancement, and flavor masking.
When taken with meals, it binds with dietary fats in the digestive tract to reduce lipid absorption, providing a natural functional alternative for healthy weight control.
Cyclodextrins feature a hydrophobic inner core and a hydrophilic outer shell, allowing them to entrap hydrophobic molecules to improve solubility, stability, and bioavailability.
The standard CAS number for Alpha Cyclodextrin (α-CD) is 10016-20-3.
For trial or sample quantities, 1kg aluminum foil bags with double plastic linings are provided. Commercial bulk quantities are supplied in 10kg or 25kg standard fiber drums/cartons.
