State variables | Â |
---|---|
a(t) = (a a , a p , a b , p a )T | Â |
a a = amino acids in the free AA pool | Â |
a p = amino acids channeled to protein synthesis | Â |
a b = amino acids channeled to catabolism | Â |
p a = tissue protein given by its amino acid composition | Â |
u aa = 20 amino acids that are recieved from the feed (input variable) | Â |
State equations | Â |
= -k aa a a - U ps k p a a + u aa | k aa = 1/s |
= U ps k p a a - v s (t)a p + f p v d (t)p a | k p = 1/s |
= k aa a a + f t v d (t)p a - ab, cat | Â |
= v s (t)a p - v d (t)p a | Â |
