(NU/1433-5) NorthEast Crystallisation Technologies (NEXtals): The Provision of Business Consultancy to Assist Commercialisation of University Research

Drs Hall and Probert have developed a novel approach for the high throughput, microscale, screening of crystallisation conditions for small molecules. This allows for the rapid exploration of multidimensional experimental space, with minimal sample requirements, leading to the discovery of successful crystallisation conditions. The growth of small molecule crystals enables both the discovery of novel crystal forms (polymorphs, salts etc.) and the sub-atomic scale analysis of the molecular components (through single...
