The Cambridge Structural Database System and Its Applications in Supramolecular Chemistry and Materials Design

TL;DR: The Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) as discussed by the authors contains more than half a million small-molecule organic and metal-organic crystal structures, including motif topology searches and crystal packing feature searches, as well as evaluating crystal packing similarity and H-bond propensity analysis.

Solid State of Tulobuterol : Characterization, Dissolution, Transformation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the existence of new crystal forms of tulobuterol which are used to prevent morning asthma attacks by agonist and the transformation of crystal forms, and they showed significant differences in the dissolution rate.

Characterisation of organic solids using solid-state NMR spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this article, a scoring function for evaluating crystal structures of tolfenamic acid (TFA) using solution-and solid-state NMR data is proposed to discriminate four similar TFA polymorphs.

Mechanism of sustained‐action medication. Theoretical analysis of rate of release of solid drugs dispersed in solid matrices

TL;DR: The analyses suggest that for the latter system the time required to release 50% of the drug would normally be expected to be approximately 10 per cent of that required to dissolve the last trace of the solid drug phase in the center of the pellet.

The united states pharmacopeia.

Robert A. Hatcher
- 04 Jan 1908 - 
TL;DR: The Pharmacopeia was called into being by physicians in 1820, and in 1850 pharmacists were admitted to the convention; since then physicians have gradually relinquished control to pharmacists, and to-day the authors are confronted with an anomalous condition.
Book

Thermal methods of analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a revised edition necessitated by the phenomenal growth of the field during the past decade contains 90% new material, focusing on tech niques and applications of thermal analysis.
