Self-assembly of molecules to form a highly organized crystal lattice
Separation technique – isolation of solids
Purification method for a compound
Improve properties – amorphous vs crystalline, polymorphism

form screening and selection
Drug substance development is continuous troubleshooting and risk
management. A broad overview of the crystallization behavior
gives understanding and avoids undesired changes.
Have all data, decisions and conclusions accessible and searchable
for the project team, not only the report with successful results.
Use of automation leads to smart experiments for the overview to select
optimal conditions. Screen more different factors, apply high diversity
in methods, solvent mixtures, concentrations and starting materials.
