the proportion of active ingredient to cyclopolysaccharide by weight is between about 1 12 500 and about 1 25 is more preferably between about 1 5 000 and about 1 50 is even more preferably between about 1 2 500 and about 1 75 and most preferably between about 1 1 500 and 1 100 the stabilizing agent is typically present in a weight ratio to the cyclopolysaccharide of between about 5 1 and about 1 1000 preferably of between about 2 1 and about 1 200 the cyclopolysaccharides which may employed in the practice of this invention include cyclodextrins cyclomannins cycloaltrins cyclofructins and the like in general cyclopolysaccharides comprising between 6 and 8 sugar units are preferred cyclodextrins are cyclic oligo 1 4 alpha d glucopyranoses comprising at least 6 sugar units the most widely known are cyclodextrins containing six seven or eight sugar units cyclodextrins containing six sugar units are known as alpha cyclodextrins those containing seven sugar units are known as beta cyclodextrins and those consisting of eight sugar units are known as gamma cyclodextrins particularly preferred cyclopolysaccharides are beta cyclodextrins the cyclopolysaccharides employed are modified with one or more chargeable groups such chargeable groups may be anionic in which case the stabilizing agent is cationic or such charged groups may be cationic in which case the stabilizing agent is anionic preferred anionic groups include.
