This publication shows the application of x-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry as gold standards for investigating the solid-state of lipid-based excipients (LBEs). Understanding the solid-state alteration in LBEs and its effect on the performance of pharmaceutical products thereof is the key factor for manufacturing robust lipid-based dosage forms.
