A key component of the overall quality of a pharmaceutical iscontrol of impurities, as their presence, even in small amounts,may affect drug safety and efficacy. The identification andquantification of impurities to acceptable standards presents asignificant challenge to the analytical chemist. Analytical scienceis developing rapidly and provides increasing opportunity toidentify the structure, and therefore the origin and safetyimplications of these impurities, and the challenges of theirmeasurement drives the development of modern quantitative methods.
Written for both practicing and student analytical chemists,Analysis of Drug Impurities provides a detailed overview ofthe challenges and the techniques available to permit accurateidentification and quantification of drug impurities.

"This is a unique book; the editors are to be conrgatulated onpersuading their industrial colleagues to write chapters, providingan industrial focus on analytical issues. This is a useful volumewhich fills a gap in the literature... I would recommend the bookto all process and analytical chemists."
Trevor Laird"This book can be recommended tonot only analytical chemists but also scientists working in thefield of pharmaceutical analysis."
