Abstract

We consider metabolic networks of simple enzymatic reactions of V.Henri type. Applying the mass action law the reactions lead to a system of ordinary diferential equations. For a linear chain of reactions we propose certain simplications of the ODE system as well as a solution of the initial problem for the system. Some numerical examples are presented.References[1] Kai Schallau and Bjorn H.
