Analytical Development Programs

SARA PHARM offers a broad range of analytical services alongside with the screening programs.

• X-Ray Powder Diffraction (top-of-the-art equipment) (e.g crystalline form identification)
• Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) (e.g melting point and other thermal transitions identification)
• Thermo-gravimetric Analysis (TGA) (e.g form nature identification: solvate, hydrate or anhydrate)
• Single Crystal (SC) analysis (e.g crystal structure determination)
• Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) investigations (e.g structural identification)
• Infra-red (IR) and Raman spectroscopy (e.g salt, polymorph and structural identification)
• Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) (e.g crystal habit/ morphology identification)
• High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) (e.g purity, solubility determinations)
• Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DSV or GVA) (e.g hygroscopicity/hydration investigations)
• Karl Fischer (KF) (e.g water content determinations)
• pKa and logP/logD determinations
• Dissolution rate determinations in selected media
