pKa/LogP/LogD Measurements
Physicochemical Characterization

Automated, material-sparing physicochemical analysis for early understanding of molecular ionization and lipophilicity — critical parameters influencing solubility, permeability, and absorption.

Automated Measurement Using pH and UV Titration

Automated pH and UV metric titration enables precise determination of molecular ionization and lipophilicity, providing critical insights for drug development:

Understand molecular ionization and solid-state behavior

Characterize interactions that influence crystal form and solid-state stability.

Improve prediction of in vivo performance

Generate reliable data that support absorption, distribution, and exposure predictions.

Enable more informed formulation strategies

Evaluate solubility behavior across different pH environments to guide design.

Key Physicochemical Parameters

pKa — Ionization

Defines ionization state across physiological pH ranges. Plays a critical role in solubility, salt selection, and formulation strategy.

LogP — Lipophilicity

Describes the partition coefficient between octanol and water. A key indicator for ADME profiling and BCS classification.

LogD — Distribution

Accounts for ionization at specific pH levels. Provides a more accurate predictor of distribution and permeability in physiological environments.

Part of an Integrated Developability Assessment Strategy

At Crystal Pharmatech, these data integrate directly into our broader Developability Assessment workflow, supporting solid form selection, solubility studies, and PBPK modeling inputs.

By combining automated measurements with advanced in silico modeling using **GastroPlus®**, we deliver a comprehensive understanding at the earliest stages.
