90. The term "impurity profiling" as it relates to pharmaceutical research and development is commonly used to describe work associated with detection, isolation/structure elucidation, and quantification of impurities in API and pharmaceutical formulations, For a more thorough overview, see: Gorog, S. Trends Anal. Chem. 2003, 22 (7), 407.

122. From the chemist's perspective, the study of reaction rates and mechanisms involves the field of physical chemistry; from the chemical engineer's perspective, the same studies are considered a branch of reaction engineering.
123. For a classic example of mechanistic detail deduced from kinetic studies of a complex reaction involving catalysis, see: Landis, C. R.; Halpern, J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1987, 109 (6), 1746.
