The physical properties of any pharmaceutical solid material can impact the bulk properties of material, formulation performance, ease of processing, stability and its final appearance. Solid state characterization is essential to understanding the physical properties and ensuring that the pharmaceutical product has an optimal physical form.

To support your R&D and regulatory filings, VIMTA offers physical characterization services including polymorph characterization, thermal analysis, spectroscopic analysis and particle size determination. Our offerings include:

• Identification and characterization of polymorph
