Several basic features (e.g. the purpose of guidelines, resource implications, clarity of recommendations) have been shown to play an important role in guideline usage [ 3, 22], which suggests that the development phase offers great opportunities to improve the implementation of guidelines.
For this purpose, international guidelines suggest the pre-treatment of the samples with Triton X-100.
For this purpose, general guidelines for rational cocrystal design through supramolecular synthesis will be highlighted first.
