- -conventional techniques, the largest number of papers is dealing with US-assisted CD solubilization or re-dissolution and in a minor extends CD derivatization. Analogously, ball milling is mostly used in the preparation of CD complexes rather than synthetic preparations. MW-assisted CD chemistry covers 1/4–1/5

These results were in good agreement with a previous report [42] in which the dissolution of hesperetin and naringenin complexed with β-CD was studied. The improved dissolution rate observed may be due to the increase in solubility
