CIRCE Scientific is an innovative company specialized in the identification and characterization of new solid forms of known active compounds for the modulation of their physicochemical properties.
By using crystalline engineering, CIRCE optimizes the properties of a compound (such as solubility, bioavailability, stability, photostability…) to improve its competitiveness or overcome limitations that compromise its development or commercialization. The result is improved products, with strong IP protection, that generate advantages for both the product and its commercial exploitation.
CIRCE’s R&D team has been researching for years in crystalline engineering and specifically, in new solid experimental research. With the support and collaboration of some research groups from different universities, CIRCE is carrying out successful virtual and experimental evaluations to identify and characterize new solid forms of relevant bioactive compounds.
The combined use of this experience, with proprietary and virtual research and experimental testing tools, allows CIRCE to perform an efficient process for the improvement of bioactive compounds through the application of crystalline engineering techniques to recognized active ingredients.
