1H NMR Relaxation Study to Evaluate the Crystalline State of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients Containing Solid Dosage Forms Using Time Domain NMR

The aim of this study was to demonstrate the usefulness of the time domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR) method to characterize the crystalline state of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) containing solid dosage forms. In this study, carbamazepine and indomethacin are used as models for poorly water-soluble APIs. First, we measured the T1 and T2 relaxation behavior of crystalline and amorphous APIs. From the results, we were able to...
