Our preformulation research on features both formulation selection and pharmaceutical preparation. As for the low number of active pharmaceutical ingredients or candidate compounds with medicinal properties, we provide professional preformulation services and explore valuable information.

Crystal form research
Crystal form determination by X- ray diffraction or DSC
Crystal form researchcrystal melting point, solubility, particle size, etc.Stability of crystal form under influencing factorsCrystal transformation of the proposed crystal formProposed API crystal form for animal testing, clinical trials, or drugs to marketProcess research of the proposed crystal formStirring method, standing and stirringCrystallization mode (natural , cooling, and seeding crystallization)Drying process ( water content standards, crystal water judgment – TG, DSC, and single crystal culture, drying method, and drying temperature)Preparation process simulation (grinding, wet granulation, tabletting, etc.)Quality standards for the proposed crystal form(melting point, solubility, particle size; IR, x-ray, DSC and TG）
