Major(s) Public Health
Student Bio I am a public health major, graduating in the spring of 2025. I plan to attend medical school in the future. I am originally from Morgantown, Kentucky. However, after serving 4 years in the United States Air Force at Tyndall Air Force Base I am attending Florida State University at the Panama City campus.
Poster Title The melting point phase diagram of a cocrystal between Quercetin and L-proline.
Abstract Cocrystal formation plays a crucial role in pharmaceutical science by enhancing bioavailability and solubility of active pharmaceutical ingredients. This study investigates the melting points of cocrystals formed from L-proline and quercetin using ethanol and methanol as solvents. Cocrystals were synthesized by preparing solutions with varying molar ratios of L-proline and quercetin in alcohol. The resulting samples were analyzed using a melting point apparatus to determine thermal properties, while qualitative observations were recorded to assess structural changes. Melting point data served as an indicator of cocrystal formation; however, limited results were obtained due to the absence of distinct melting points in some cases. These findings highlight challenges in cocrystal formation and suggest further investigation into alternative methods for characterization
