Who Should Attend PPXRD?
Anyone who has asked the following questions:
- How do I make the most of my X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) data?
- What XRPD data do I need to construct a good patent?
- How do I determine the crystallinity of my sample?
- How can I support the physiochemical team during solubility
determinations?
- Is my material pure in a single crystalline form?
- Can I use XRPD to determine stoichiometry during formulation of
complexes?
- How do I prepare XRPD data for regulatory submissions?
- Do I need XRPD for informal or formal stability studies?
