Abstract: This paper reviews cholesterol removal methods by beta-cyclodextrin or its derivatives. Cholesterol was complexed by beta-cyclodextrin or its derivatives in two major ways i.e., molecular imprinting and direct inclusion. It revealed that beta-cyclodextrin dimers linked via different bridges exhibited much higher binding capability than beta-cyclodextrin itself, of which, a beta-cyclodextrin dimer linked by a thioether bridge exhibits the highest binding constant with cholesterol, which reaches up to (3.30 +/- 0.80) x 10(6).
