Polymorph farming on a chip is a promising strategy for rapid polymorph discovery by transforming crystallization?crystal isolation?characterization into one time-efficient step. Polymorph farming on ...

Researchers explored a colloidal crystal model to produce specific polymorphs, required for use in materials science and pharmaceuticals. Polymorphs are not mythical, chimeric beasts -- they are ...

Polymorphs are not mythical, chimeric beasts—they are substances with identical chemical compositions but differing crystal structures that also exhibit different physical and chemical properties.

Gauging the adequate level and type of screening is the challenge when identifying relevant crystalline forms. Solid-dosage drugs remain the preferred dosage form due to ease of administration and ...

Lack of novelty is a challenge that can prevent registration of polymorphs of known pharmaceutical compounds – a type of chemical product – characterized by physicochemical parameters. The guidelines ...

(a) Microscopic image and schematic representation of crystal polymorphs obtained via heteroepitaxial growth (α-phase: green; β-phase: red). Polystyrene particles with a diameter of 860 nm were used ...
