Metabolic Flux Analysis

A metabolic flux analysis is an analysis to calculate the theoretical maximal yields for a proposed system of pathways in a micro-organism. With this analysis it is also possible to find whether a system is not viable because of a co-factor imbalance. Lastly, several product pathways were introduced to E. coli with hydrocarbon degradation to see what maximal theoretical yields on hydrocarbons are.

How a metabolic flux analysis works, is explained here.
