title: Cyclodextrins as versatile chiral recognition reagents for use in a variety of optical and separative analyses.
abstract: A short overview is presented covering the actual and potential use of cyclodextrins and some of their derivatives in analytical chemistry. The contributions in separation science, including HPLC, GC, CE and MEKC are noted, together with applications in circular dichroism and luminescence techniques, including fluorescence and phosphorescence.
