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 ...

Polymorphism is observed in most active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), due to the different forms or molecular structures of a compound affecting the efficacy, stability or bio-availability of the ...

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 ...

A number of materials can crystallize in forms known as polymorphs, with these forms differing in the crystal lattice’s three-dimensional arrangement of molecules or atoms. Polymorphs tend to possess ...

Crystal polymorphism is critically important in the fields of pharmaceuticals and materials science. For instance, a metastable polymorph of an active pharmaceutical ingredient may benefit from ...

Only a handful of compounds have a knack for crystallizing into a variety of forms, or polymorphs. One of the most prolific, a small molecule known as ROY (so called because it crystallizes in ...

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 ...
