Differential scanning calorimetry: applications in drug development

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is frequently the pharmaceutical thermal analysis technique of choice because of its ability to provide detailed information about both the physical and energetic properties of a substance. This review provides an up-to-date overview of the applications of DSC in the drug development process. It should serve as a broad introduction to those starting work in this area, and also as a valuable reference for those already practising in this field.
