(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 ...
From crystallographers' beards to billion-dollar lawsuits, the phenomenon of disappearing polymorphs has puzzled chemists for decades. Now researchers are finally unravelling the science behind why st ...
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.
MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Breakthrough research has now revealed the true crystal forms of pharmaceutical psilocybin. A new study overcomes experimental challenges to solve the crystallographic ...
This image by Shaista Hassan Lone, a scientist at the University of Kashmir, shows two polymorphs—different crystal structures—of 4-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde. When Lone initially set out to grow ...
Sometimes, compounds crystallize in unexpected ways. This is a problem for drug manufacturers, who need to create consistent products. Scientists are working to understand why substances take on ...
MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--New research by Usona Institute identifies the most favorable environments to achieve consistency and reproducibility of pharmaceutical psilocybin produced at large ...
