java.lang.Object

bio.singa.simulation.model.modules.concentration.reactants.Reactant

Direct Known Subclasses:

CatalyticReactant, StoichiometricReactant

public abstract class Reactant
extends Object

A Reactant encapsulates a ChemicalEntity for the use in Reactions. This abstract class has currently two implementations StoichiometricReactants are Reactants that are consumed or produced during the reaction. CatalyticReactants are influencing the velocity (reaction rate), but are not consumed or produced.
