Sometimes, compounds crystallize in unexpected ways. This is a problem for drug manufacturers, who need to create consistent products. Scientists are working to understand why substances take on different crystal forms, called polymorphs, under different conditions. Recently, they’ve shown that impurities can affect the relative stability of those forms.
