• one crystalline form in another
• crystalline fractions in an amorphous matrix
• amorphous fractions in a crystalline substance
• Selecting the optimal technique for such a purpose depends on the drug substance and the drug product. At Sortis pharma, we are particularly experienced in quantifying low amorphous fractions of largely crystalline material, which is generally the most challenging task.

We choose the best technique for your substance to get the most sensitive levels of detection.

Examples of these include:

• Powder X-ray diffraction (XRPD) - transmission and / or reflection
• Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
• Isothermal Microcalorimetry (IMC)
• Solution Calorimetry (SolCal) & Raman spectroscopy
• Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS)
• Whether for identity testing, limit testing or quantification, methods are developed with a view to future validation and routine testing under CGMP conditions.
