Molecularity and reaction order
Before we begin to translate our ideas about the reaction mechanism into a DynaFit script file, it is necessary to consider a number of theoretical factors. Especially in writing reaction mechanisms for biochemical systems at equilibrium, we must consider the fact that not all equilibrium constants might be independent of each other. This applies in particular to branched pathways, as is explained in section 9.2. In writing reaction mechanism for biochemical systems undergoing changes over time, no such restrictions apply.
