(C) European Media Lab 2003. Partition the system into a deterministic part and a stochastic part. That is, every reaction is either classified deterministic or stochastic. Deterministic reactions involve only those metabolites (on substrate and product side), which have a high particle number. Therefore it is legal to integrate this part of the system with e.g. a numerical integrator. The concentration and relative particle number change should be low enough, so that the probabilities of all the reactions in the system show only little changes. The stochastic reactions must be simulated with an exact stochastic method (e.g. next reaction method (Gibson)), because their firing changes the reaction probabilities in the system significantly.
