“…From the thorough literature study of glycine polymorphs it was concluded that metastable αpolymorphic form of glycine produces spontaneously in pure aqueous solutions whereas the most thermodynamically stable form γ-glycine can be obtained in acidic or basic solution, low pH or high pH solutions or in the presence of inorganic salts or tailor made additives [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][19][20][21][22]. In recent times, γ-glycine single crystals have grown in the presence of potassium chloride [31], magnesium chloride [15], phosphoric acid [16], ammonium acetate [17], ammonium carbonate [18], zinc acetate [23], strontium chloride [29], cesium chloride [30] and ammonia solutions [24]. In the present research article, we report the growth and characterization of γ-glycine crystal grown from a mixture of water and magnesium sulfate solvent by slow solvent evaporation procedure.…”
