MbT-Tool: An open-access tool based on thermodynamic electron equivalents model to obtain microbial-metabolic reactions to be used in biotechnological process

Abstract

Modelling cellular metabolism is a strategic factor in investigating microbial behaviour and interactions, especially for bio-technological processes. A key factor for modelling microbial activity is the calculation of nutrient amounts and products generated as a result of the microbial metabolism. Representing metabolic pathways through balanced reactions is a complex and time-consuming task for biologists, ecologists, modellers and engineers
