Compartments


Compartments have "Volume" as their primary attribute.

When a reaction has reactants in Compartment C1 and products in Compartment C2, then the rate of the reaction is multiplied by a DilutionFactor, which is C2/C1. This is handles by the ContainerTool plugin.

For example, in the image to the right, reaction rate for J0 is "J0.k0 * cell1.s1 * J0.DilutionFactor", where J0.DilutionFactor is "cell1/cells2"
