Unlabelled: Antimicrobial resistance remains a public health threat. Probiotics harboring antimicrobial resistant genes (ARGs) have, in recent years, been considered a potential health risk. Studies conducted on probiotics from increasingly popular health supplements have raised the possibility of transmitting ARGs to commensals in the human gut, concomitantly establishing a reservoir of ARGs and risking acquisition by opportunistic pathogens.

In this study, two cocrystals of PAL with resorcinol (RES) or orcinol (ORC) were prepared by evaporation crystallization to enhance their solubility. The cocrystals were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, Hirshfeld surface analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared and scanning electron microscopy.

Five cocrystals of aripiprazole (ARI) with resveratrol (RSV) and kaempferol (KAE), ARI-RSV, ARI-RSV·MeOH, ARI-KAE, ARI-KAE·EtOH, ARI-KAE·IPA, were synthesized and characterized. The single crystal of ARI-RSV·MeOH, ARI-KAE·EtOH, and ARI-KAE·IPA were analyzed by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD).
