A method for producing highly crystalline and stable microparticles of an active substance with a very narrow size distribution. The microparticles being crystallized out of a suspension made of primary particles of the active substance, a solution of the active substance, a non-solvent for the active substance and inert formed pieces. The resulting microparticles hare are highly stable largely independent of the physiochemical properties of the active substance and can be especially suitable for fast release dosage forms of pharmaceuticals.

An arrangement and a method for producing high-purity crystals, such as temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical agents, in a countercurrent crystallization process. The arrangement comprises a plurality of crystallizers, mother liquor lines, each of which has a shut-off valve, and crystallization product lines, each of which has a shut-off valve, so that a mother liquor flow can be generated which is directed from a crystallizer to the second-next crystallizer in the direction of decreasing purity, and a crystallization product flow can be generated which is directed from a to dissolved crystallization product that is about to crystallize to the next crystallizer in the direction of higher purity.

The present invention relates to a method for the reliable and reproducible preparation of 4-[17&#x3b2;-methoxy-17&#x3b1;-methoxymethyl-3-oxoestra-4,9-dien-11&#x3b2;-yl]benzaldehyde (E)-oxime (asoprisnil) on the pilot and manufacturing scale. Asoprisnil, which is prepared by this method, is distinguished by a very good physical stability and is therefore particularly suitable for the manufacture of solid pharmaceutical forms (tablets, coated tablets, etc.).
