Advances in Pharmaceutical Nanocrystals

Dear Colleagues,

The field of pharmaceutical nanocrystals has matured over the last 30 years, and several commercial products have been marketed. Beyond their well-documented potential for dissolution enhancement, nanocrystals are a drug delivery platform that offers multiple possibilities, extending from oral to inhalable and even injectable formulations. Despite the considerable progress that has been made in recent years, there are still aspects of nanocrystal manufacturing in need of further elucidation and opportunities for innovation.

This Special Issue aims to attract original research articles, as well as critical reviews, discussing all aspects of pharmaceutical nanocrystals, including manufacturing process development and relevant specialized equipment, modeling of nanocrystals and their interactions with surface stabilizers, novel applications, and their biopharmaceutical properties.
