Slides

Estimation of metabolic fluxes when measurements are insufficient and/or uncertain. J. Picó and F. Llaneras, Meeting of the spanish network of systems biology, 2007.

These slides provide a good summary of the flux spectrum approach and its applications [1, 2].


Software

Flux spectrum approach matlab package.

The package contains two matlab functions to compute the flux spectrum and a example [1, 2, 3].


still not available... Metabolic flux analysis.

A simple implementation of metabolic flux analysis. It is also useful to divide the stoichiometric matrix in the measured and unknown parts (in order to analyze its determinacy and redundancy) [1].

still not available... Alpha-spectrum.

Two matlab functions to compute the alpha-spectrum considering measurements uncertainty, and a simple example [2].

still not available... Convert measured concentrations into measured fluxes.

A set of simple function useful to convert measured concentrations into measured fluxes: euler methods, non-linear observer, mean average methods, etc [1].

still not available... C# vectors library.

A very simple library with classes representing mathematical vectors in a suitable way. It inherits from the class Arraylist, so it is not necessary to define the vector length a priori [4].


DEA Dissertation

This dissertation describes my research during the first stages of my PhD. It has two main parts, the first one devoted to the state-of-the-art [5] and the second one to my first contributions [1, 2]. The slides provide a short summary of my work during the DEA period and a introduction to my research (in spanish).
