Pharmaceutical processing polymorph conversions

A fiber optic probe was used by Blanco et al. for analysis of spasmoctyl samples with the active compound otilonium bromide and cellulose, maize starch, sodium starch glycolate, and glyceryl palmitostearate as excipients. Another study from this group covered the identification, qualification of the substance, and the quantification of the active component. A library search with a comparison to the near-infrared spectra of 163 pharmaceuticals was involved. An on-line monitoring for the determination of the endpoint of polymorph conversions in pharmaceutical processes was recently described further investigations into this field were published and are noted previously. ...
