Usage Examples
Preposition: of
- drug: Subsequently the effects of modifications of crystal habits and polymorphs of drugs on their compression properties can be assessed.
Converse of object
- identify: In both cases, we need extensive experimental studies seeking to identify all long-lived polymorphs in order to understand the kinetic factors involved.
- predict: Researchers working on the e-materials project picked up the gauntlet and successfully predicted a new polymorph of the Alzheimer's drug, piracetam.
Adjective modifier
- different: A person skilled in the art, on simply reading both documents, would therefore think that they identified different polymorphs.
- possible: A possible polymorph ( not synthesized to date ) would have a spiral channel system.
- observed: This should ensure that the data-mining analysis could find the most effective correlation between the observed polymorphs and the predicted thermodynamic and kinetic properties.
- metastable: Hence, we need to rationalize the kinetic factors that can lead to the observation of metastable polymorphs.
Modifies a noun
- prediction: The database technology will be a significant novel research tool, independent of the increased reliability of polymorph prediction.
- screening: More details 19/06/03 Research Seminar: " Molecular basis of polymorph screening " .
- neutrophil: The slide shows a large number of Gram-negative diplococci present in a few of the pus cells ( polymorph neutrophil leukocytes ).
- identification: Pharmorphix Ltd Pharmorphix are involved in early stage polymorph identification, using crystallographic drug discovery chemistry.
Noun used with modifier
- silica: Polyhedral models of silica polymorphs Silica, SiO 2, exists in a number of different crystalline forms.
