Monitoring Hydration State Changes of Anti-Inflammatory Agents Using Raman Spectroscopy

In drug research and development, the effect that the hydration state of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) has on crystallinity is an important consideration. Variations in crystallinity influence the stability, solubility, bio-availability, and dissolution rate of the drug. Therefore, knowing the effect that humidity has on the stability of different states is important, from both a regulatory and safety standpoint.
