Applications of solid-state NMR spectroscopy to pharmaceuticals
21 February 2013 | By Eric Munson, Patrick DeLuca Endowed Professor in Pharmaceutical Technology, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, College of Pharmacy, University of Kentucky
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy (SSNMR) has emerged as an extremely powerful analytical technique for the characterisation of pharmaceuticals[1-5]. Despite its capability, SSNMR is still not used ubiquitously in the pharmaceutical industry. Several factors contribute to this, including cost and analysis time, but two of the major reasons are understanding the full…
