Sensitivity Analysis
Sensitivity analysis lets you calculate the time-dependent sensitivities of all the species states with respect to species initial conditions and parameter values in the model. A sensitivity analysis is needed e.g. when some of the parameter values are not known. The true value of a parameter is unimportant when the most essential species states are insensitive to the unknown parameter. Only for the sensitive unknown parameters are experiments needed to determine their true values.
In our project we have been able to find hypothetical values for all used parameters, but a sensitivity analyses is nevertheless always valuable to detect critical parameters. These are the parameter values on which our project critically depends and which should be analyzed/characterized as exact as possible.
