Bond Graphs Unify Stoichiometric Analysis and Thermodynamics

Abstract

Whole-cell modelling is constrained by the laws of nature in general and the laws of thermodynamics in particular. This paper shows how one prolific source of information, stoichiometric models of biomolecular systems, can be integrated with thermodynamic principles using the bond graph approach to network thermodynamics.
