Quality Control

Material science in pharmaceuticals requires the expertise to evaluate each API using a variety of techniques.

In Polycrystalline we can support your API characterization using Polarizing Light Miscroscopy (PLM), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Light scattering Particle Size, and X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD).

Our capabilities are not limited to the listed above, our know-how goes beyond that and here the list of the techniques available at Polycrystalline

Dissolution and Solubility Studies

The experience and knowledge in pharmaceutical dissolution within Polycrystalline focus on supporting preformulation studies and solid form selection.

The dissolution testing is never a routine test, but is a highly customized essential tool in pharmaceutical development.

We evaluate the physico-chemical properties of drug candidates to select the most appropriate solid form for further development (pre-formulation).

We perform biorelevant in-vitro tests to mimic fed and fasted state conditions compare prototype formulations (preclinical selection).

Our available equipment:

  • 2X Avantium Crystall 16: (Thermodynamic Solubility)
  • Agilent 708-DS (apparatus 2): intrinsic solubility and dissolution profile
  • Sotax apparatus4: (Dissolution Profile flow through cell)
