Application Note 15 – Precision in powder analysis

Precision in powder analysis.

How electron diffraction detects residual crystallinity in milled carvedilol that PXRD can miss.

What you'll learn

  • How milling can leave residual crystallinity that's hard to detect
  • How 3D ED / microED resolves crystallinity below PXRD's reach
  • Why detecting it matters for solubility, bioavailability and stability

Why it matters

Milling improves solubility and bioavailability but can leave residual crystallinity that powder X-ray diffraction struggles to detect. This note shows how electron diffraction (3D ED / microED) detects and characterises the residual crystallinity in milled carvedilol that conventional powder methods can miss.

At a glance: 3D ED / MicroED · carvedilol · milled pharmaceutical · residual crystallinity below PXRD's reach · solubility & stability.
