Safety in technology and chemistry

Super fast crystals

BAM’s analytical chemists have observed an unusually fast crystallisation of the antihypertensive drug nifedipine. They can measure crystallisation processes that occur 10,000 times faster than previously known. Knowledge of the different crystallisation pathways is important in order to characterise the specific impact of this crystallisation on the development of pharmaceuticals.

Reference Organisms Database

BAM offers a new “Reference Organisms Database” for bacteria, fungi and insects on the internet which can be used for standard tests and tests on manufactured products. The special feature of this database is that it contains standard reference insects. BAM’s scientists have characterised structure and form (morphology) of four beetle, seven termite and two moth types.
