Finally, from a fundamental point of view, cross-linking cyclodextrin polymers
continue to be of interest to the scientific community, as evidenced by the many
publications on the subject that are published each year (Table 8.3), and I am sure it
will last for years.
Acknowledgments The solid-state NMR spectroscopy of cyclodextrins was my entrance to the
world of oligosaccharides and polysaccharides, and a lot of what I know I owe to my two scientific
mentors Professor Michel Morcellet (Laboratoire de Chimie Macromoléculaire, Lille, France) and
Research Director Giangiacomo Torri (Istituto di Chimica e Biochimica G. Ronzoni, Milan, Italy),
to whom I would like to express my immense gratitude. This chapter is dedicated to them in recognition of their constant inspiration and for their excellent spirit of cooperation, unlimited enthusiasm, and great friendship.
I am also particularly grateful to all those who have contributed to this work through several
friendly and fruitful national, European, and international collaborations, with particular attention
to Dr. Nadia Morin-Crini (Besançon, France), Pr. Benito Casu (Milan, Italy), Pr. Yahya Lekchiri
(Oudja, Morocco), Pr. Bernard Martel (Lille, France), Mr. Cesare Cosentino (Milan, Italy), Dr.
Carmen Vecchi (Milan, Italy), Dr. Marco Guerrini (Milan, Italy), Dr. Anna-Maria Naggi (Milan,
Italy), Pr. Edwin Yates (Liverpool, UK), Dr. Marcella Chiari (Milan, Italy), Dr. Peter Winterton
(Toulouse, France), Dr. Corina Bradu (Bucharest, Romania), Dr. Bruno Perly (Gif-sur-Yvette,
France), Pr. Joëlle Morcellet (Lille, France), Dr. Ludovic Janus (Lille, France), Pr. Joël Vebrel
(Besançon, France), Pr. Pierre-Marie Badot (Besançon, France), Dr. Sophie Gavoille (Besançon,
France), Mr. Xavier Hutinet (Champlitte, France), Mr. Jean-François Minary (Devecey, France),
Dr. Danielle Bonenfant (Montréal, Canada), Pr. Elena Vismara (Milan, Italy), Dr. Giuseppe Trunfio
(Messina, Italy), Pr. Robert Haussler (Montréal, Canada), Pr. Sophie Fourmentin (Dunkerque,
France), Dr. Marc Fourmentin (Dunkerque, France), Pr. Eric Lichtfouse (Aix-Marseille, France),
Pr. Lee D. Wilson (Saskatchewan, Canada), Dr. Éva Fenyvesi (Budapest, Hungary), Dr. Vincent
Placet (Besançon, France), and Pr. Andrei Sarbu (Bucharest, Romania).
I would also like to thank all the PhD students (Sabrina Bertini, Davide Sforzini, Angelo
Cambiaghi, Yvan Lunghi, Angelo Ficaro, Roberta Suardi, Alessandro Ficarra, Nadia Morin,
Mustapha Quendouchen, Frank Delval, Olivier Adam, François Renault, Bertrand Sancey, Jérémie
Charles, Anne Priac, Elise Euvrard) and postdoctoral fellows (Harmel N. Peindy, Capucine Robert,
Trann Phan, Giuseppe Trunfio, Lucian Staicu, Sonia Loiacono, Chiara Mongiovi) who have
worked on this topic.
Finally, I would like to sincerely thank the industrialists (SILAC Industrie, Papeterie du Doubs,
GEMDOUBS, Minoterie Pont, Altadis-Seita, Papeterie de Mandeure, Incotex Textile, Electrolyse
Abbaye d’Acey, VMC Pêche, Zindel, Galvanoplast, Roquette, CycloLab) and the various financial
contributors to our projects (Agence de l’eau Rhône Méditerranée Corse, FEDER, Europe, INRA
Transfert, Région Franche-Comté, Ville de Besançon, OSEO/ANVAR, Incubateur de FrancheComté, Agence de l’Environnement et de la Maîtrise de l’Energie, Université de Franche-Comté).
