Flux Balance Analysis and Flux Variability Analysis
Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) and Flux Variability Analysis (FVA)
Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) is a linear programming technique that uses metabolic models to predict phenotypic responses under given environmental conditions. It is a leading method for simulating and manipulating cellular growth in silico.
Flux Variability Analysis (FVA) is a widely used computational tool to determine the minimum and maximum ranges of reaction fluxes that satisfy the model constraints. It achieves this by solving a double linear programming problem, involving a maximization followed by a minimization for each reaction of interest.
