Abstract: The article presents a consolidated review of the mathematical framework for construction of Stoichiometric subspaces associated with Chemical Reaction Networks, based on theoretically imposed constraints, mechanistic considerations and data driven mathematical modeling; A rigorous mathematical treatment of the problem is presented and is illustrated using an appropriate numerical case study example.

Keywords: Stoichiometric Matrix, Chemical Reaction Networks, Fundamental Subspaces of a Matrix, Stoichiometric Subspaces, Chemical Factor Analysis.
