“…A granule microstructure encompasses several properties such as porosity, surface morphology, component content uniformity, pore size distribution, open-to-closed pore ratio, etc. All these factors together affect the flow, strength, content uniformity, and stability of the granules [ 3 , 11 , 12 , 13 ] and also affect the critical quality attributes of downstream final dosage forms like tablets and capsules [ 7 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. Studies have shown that variance in the porosity of the granules significantly affects the strength and dissolution of tablets [ 8 , 15 , 17 , 18 , 19 ].…”
