Abstract
A beta -cyclodextrin substituted with amino and carboxymethyl groups on the primary and secondary side respectively, has a positively charged primary face and a negatively charged secondary face at neutral pH, and self-assemb les in water into supramolecular tapes that are 50-300 nanometres wide and up to 20 micrometres long.
