Improved Metabolic Flux Estimations through Compositional Data Analysis

Isotopic Metabolic Flux Analysis (I-MFA) is a standard approach for estimating intracellular metabolic fluxes.

Isotopic Metabolic Flux Analysis (I-MFA) is a standard approach for estimating intracellular metabolic fluxes. I-MFA infers fluxes by comparing simulated and measured metabolite isotopologue distributions (MIDs) of metabolites from isotope labeling experiments. MIDs represent…
