Actually both Gepasi and Jarnac are based on differential equations. They
calculate MCA coefficients but the simulations are based on ODEs.
You are right that we do not have a universal kinetic law in biochemistry,
but that in itself is not a problem in my opinion. (there is an approach,
BST mostly from Savageau's work, which approximates kinetics with power
laws)
