Abstract: The present invention generally relates to devices and methods for crystallizing a compound. In certain industries, crystallization techniques require additional filtration steps in order to obtain products of relatively high yield and/or high purity. In some embodiments, the devices and methods described herein facilitate continuous production of high yield and/or high purity products without the need for additional filtration steps. In some embodiments, the devices and methods comprise flowing a fluid comprising a compound (e.g., a crystallizable compound, a solidifiable compound) over a substrate such that the compound crystallizes and/or precipitates on the substrate. In some embodiments, the crystallized compound can be recovered (e.g., at a high purity in solution). In certain embodiments, the substrate is orientated substantially vertically (e.g., such that flow of the fluid is driven by gravity). In some cases, the substrate comprises a plurality of crystallization promoting structures.

The screening apparatus according to the present invention may easily detect a Raman signal using a core-cap-shell nanoparticle which amplifies the Raman signal by 1012 times and has high reproducibility through Raman spectroscopy in which materials do not interfere with each other and a spectrum has a sharp peak to detect the Raman signal multiple times. Also, since a CCD camera, not a scanner, may be used as the detector, the screening apparatus may multiply screen the drug at a high speed without movement between molecules within a sample. In addition, since multicolors of 5 colors or more may be coated, the screening apparatus may be usefully used for screening various drugs.
