Abstract

Cyclodextrin is refined by performing a crystallization step in the presence of a hydrogen bond inhibitor. The hydrogen bond inhibitor includes a base in an amount to adjust the pH of the solution to 8 and above or a non-base such as urea, guanidium hydrochloride and sodium lauryl sulfate in an amount of 0.1% to 2%.
