Cellodextrin are glucose polymers of two or more glucose monomers resulting from the breakdown of cellulose.
Cellodextrins consist of repeating -(1,4)-linked glucose monomers. The most common cellodextrins are:
-
cellobiose (DP=2)
-
cellotriose (DP=3)
-
cellotetrose (DP=4)
-
cellopentose (DP=5)
-
cellohexose (DP=6)
The degree of polymerization (DP) indicates the number of linked glucose monomers it contains.
Dextrin:
Maltodextrin are a group of low-molecular-weight sugar produced by the hydrolysis of starch. Maltodextrin are a linear α-(1,4)-linked D-glucose polymer.
Industrial production is, in general, performed by acidic hydrolysis of potato starch.
Cyclodextrin are cyclical dextrin. They are formed by enzymatic degradation of starch by certain bacteria (Bacillus macerans). Cyclodextrin contain a number of glucose monomers ranging from six to eight units subunits (monomers) arranged in a circle. This arrangement creates a non-polar, hydrophobic cavity (a bucket in plain terms) and hydrophilic outer groups.

Potential activities:
Dextrin are found a wide range of applications in food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries as well as agriculture and environmental engineering.
