In the present study we evaluated the complexation of daidzein/genistein/glycitein, present in an isoflavone enriched fraction (IEF), with β-cyclodextrin and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD). Based on the increased solubility and higher complexation efficiency, IEF and HPβCD solid complexes were prepared by kneading, freeze-drying, co-evaporation, spray-drying and microwave. The solid complexes were characterized using Fourier transformed-infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and the isoflavone content and solubility were determined by liquid chromatography. The results suggest that the isoflavones daidzein, genistein and glycitein may be externally associated to HPβCD as well as that isoflavones/HPβCD inclusion complexes are formed through the insertion of B-ring into the cyclodextrin cavity. Except for the freeze-dried IEF/HPβCD solid complex, all complexes showed similar content and solubility. In conclusion, the three isoflavones showed to be able to simultaneously complex with HPβCD.
