Abstract:Understanding crystallization behaviour is integral to the design of pharmaceutical compounds for which the pharmacological properties depend on the crystal forms achieved. Very often, these crystals are based on hydrophobic molecules. One method for delivering crystal-forming hydrophobic drugs is by means of lipid nanoparticle carriers. However, so far, a characterization of the potential crystallization of fully hydrophobic molecules in a lipid environment has never been reported. In this work we investigate… Show more
