Summary

The present theoretical basis of Control Analysis is extended with the definition of Transition Time Response Coefficients. Some new relationships between local and global coefficients defined in Control Analysis are presented. These relationships are in the form of matrix products constructed in a priori form. The use of these straightforward relationships is shown in an exemplary application corresponding to an experimental system consisting of the glycolytic degradation from glucose to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.
