Abstract
When the helical starch molecule is degraded by Bacillus macerans amylase a family of cyclic oligosaccharides are obtained through scission and closure of the helical turns [1,2]. The main fractions of the oligosaccharides contain six to eight α(l → 4) linked D-glucoses and are called cyclohexaamylose, cycloheptaamylose, cycloocta-amylose or α, β and γ-cyclodextrin. In Figures 1 and 2 the chemical structure and a space filling model of the α-cyclodextrin molecule are presented; the investigations presented below will deal exclusively with this member of the cyclodextrin family.
