An example of the computation of the common subspace of isotopomer constraints in different subpools. The mass isotopomer distribution of junction metabolite M₁ is assumed to be measured. For the in flow subpools M₁₁ and M₁₂ we obtain isotopomer constraints from the above reactant metabolites by measurement propagation. These propagated constraints must be projected to mass isotopomer to the subspace defined by the mass isotopomer distribution of M₁ before generalized isotopomer balances are constructed.
