Popis: A family of an enzymatically catalyzed reaction network is studied, which involves the oxidation of monophenols by tyrosinase with enzymatic-enzymatic-chemical model in an isothermal continuous flow stirred tank reactor (CFSTR). This system consists of 11 coupled non-linear equations and is determined to have the capacity to exhibit computational multiple steady states. A set of rate constants and two corresponding steady states are computed. The phenomena of bistability, hysteresis and bifurcation are discussed. Moreover, the capacity of steady state multiplicity is extended to its family of reaction networks.
