Limited Mechanistic Link Between the Monod Equation and Methanogen Growth: a Perspective from Metabolic Modeling

ABSTRACT The Monod equation has been widely applied as the general rate law of microbial growth, but its applications are not always successful. By drawing on the frameworks of kinetic and stoichiometric metabolic models and metabolic control analysis, the modeling reported here simulated the growth...
