Cremophor EL (CrEL, Kolliphor EL), a polyethoxylated surfactant, is a formulation vehicle used for various poorly-water soluble drugs, including the anticancer agent paclitaxel (Taxol). 
Cremophor EL is a pale yellow oily liquid consisting of a mixture of components, primarily polyethylene glycol conjugates. 


Cremophor EL is not an inert vehicle, but exerts a range of biological effects, some of which have important clinical implications. 
Kolliphor EL, formerly known as Cremophor EL, is the registered trademark of BASF Corp. for its version of polyethoxylated castor oil.


Cremophor EL is prepared by reacting 35 moles of ethylene oxide with each mole of castor oil. 
The resulting product is a mixture (CAS number 61791-12-6): the major component is the material in which the hydroxyl groups of the castor oil triglyceride have ethoxylated with ethylene oxide to form polyethylene glycol ethers. 


Minor components are the polyethyelene glycol esters of ricinoleic acid, polyethyelene glycols and polyethyelene glycol ethers of glycerol.
Cremophor EL is a synthetic, nonionic surfactant used to stabilize emulsions of nonpolar materials in water.


Cremophor EL is an emulsifier and solubilizer. 
Cremophor EL, a polyoxyethylene castor oil derivative, is a nonionic surfactant. 
Cremophor EL (cremophor), a component of the paclitaxel formulation, can potentially reverse P-glycoprotein associated multi drug resistance. 


Cremophor EL is a nonionic solubilizer and emulsifier made by reacting castor oil with ethylene oxide. 
Cremophor EL is a pale yellow oily liquid that is clear at temperatures above 26°C.
