Efficient control of crystallization and crystal properties still represents a bottleneck in the manufacturing of crystalline materials ranging from pigments to semiconductor particles. In the case of pharmaceutical drug manufacture, current methods for controlling critical crystal properties...
Biocompatible Alginate Microgel Particles as Heteronucleants and Encapsulating Vehicles for Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Drugs
Contributor(s):: Eral, HB, Lopez-Mejias, VO'Mahony, M, Trout, BL, Myerson, AS, Doyle, PS
Biocompatible materials that can control crystallization while carrying large amounts of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) with diverse chemical properties are in demand in industrial practice. In this study, we investigate the utility of biocompatible alginate (ALG) hydrogels as a...
