The formation of a new intermolecular network significantly alters the physical–chemical properties of the final material, becoming crucial for target applications such as pharmaceutical, agrochemical and nuctraceutical where cocrystals are largely investigated. Although, the majority of the cocrystals reported in the literature so far are generally made of coformers which are solid at room temperature, there is no restriction in using liquid or low melting compounds as a coformer. This contribution aims at reviewing some significant cases and applications where cocrystallization is used to stabilize liquid ingredients, that are generally poorly stable and their manufacturing, transportation, and storage conditions present considerable environmental, logistical, and cost-related challenges.","PeriodicalId":54385,"journal":{"name":"Crystallography Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"102 - 123"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47259296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is half a century of evolution behind artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The exponentially developing technology can do a good job at narrow tasks for example in mathematics, modelling climate change, internet searches, facial recognition, speech recognition, driving autonomous cars, customer service, playing chess, or Facebook uses algorithms to block content that breaks its rules. It can be applied in automated stock trading, it is offered for the commercial sectors, solving business problems for public and private sectors. Science fiction often portrays artificial intelligence with human-like characteristics, which emerges conversations about the impact on society and around the ethics of AI. Artificial General or Super Intelligence is a theoretical form of AI, where it would have a self-aware consciousness that had the ability to solve problems surpassing the intelligence and capacity of the human brain. An example isHAL, the rogue computer assistant in 2001: A Space Odyssey. Back to reality, algorithms cannot understand the essence of humans: emotion, morality, culture, since these abilities cannot be expressed in mathematical equations. Artificial Intelligence enables problem-solving by the combination of computer science and robust datasets. Machine learning is the subfields of artificial intelligence. Deep learning refers to a neural network, which comprise of multiple hidden layers between the input and output layers. Machine learning and deep learning differs in the way how their algorithms learn.Machine learning ismore dependent on human intervention, what determines the hierarchy of features. A deep learning-based systemwould be able to achieve the same task in a much shorter time. MelanieVollmar andGwyndaf Evans from theDiamondLight Source Ltd., and from the Rosalind Franklin Institute, respectively, both in Harwell Science and Innovation Campus, Didcot, UK, review the “Machine learning applications in macromolecular X-ray crystallography” in Issue 2 of Volume 27 of Crystallography Reviews. We can quickly understand why introducing Artificial Intelligence is somuch investigated and needed at the Diamond Light Source reading the facts: throughout 2020 user access to MX beamlines was almost exclusively remote, in the 11 months from June 2020 over 33,000 data sets were measured, typically less than 3minutes being used for each crystal sample, the yearly quantities of measured data reach many Petabyte. We may learn from the article that AI can contribute to the question of crystallisability, to the detection of the presence of crystals in crystallisation trials, to forecast of experimental da","PeriodicalId":54385,"journal":{"name":"Crystallography Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"51 - 53"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46938378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Helliwell","doi":"10.1080/0889311X.2021.1900833","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0889311X.2021.1900833","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT In 2005 we reviewed microgravity for macromolecular crystallization, four years after the final flight of the Space Shuttle Orbiter, and five years before the first commercial flight to the International Space Station. Since then, there have been developments in access to space and advances in technology. More regular space flight is becoming a reality, new diffraction data detectors have become available that have both a faster readout and lower noise, a new generation of extremely bright X-ray sources and X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) have become available with beam collimation properties well suited geometrically to more perfect protein crystals. Neutron sources, instrumentation, and methods have also advanced greatly for yielding complete structures at room temperature and radiation damage-free. The larger volumes of protein crystals from microgravity can synergise well with these recent neutron developments. Unfortunately, progress in harnessing these new technologies to maximize the benefits seen in microgravity-grown crystals has been patchy and even disappointing. Despite detailed theoretical analysis and key empirical studies, crystallization in microgravity has not yet produced the results that demonstrate its potential. In this updated review we present some of the key lessons learned and show how processes could yet be optimized given these new developments.","PeriodicalId":54385,"journal":{"name":"Crystallography Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"3 - 46"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/0889311X.2021.1900833","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42495797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
