Résumé
Homeostasis occurs in a biological or chemical system when some output variable remains approximately constant as one or several input parameters change over some intervals. We propose in this pa- per a new computational method based on interval techniques to find species in biochemical systems that verify homeostasis. A somehow dual and equally important property is multistationarity, which means that the system has multiple steady states and possible outputs, at constant parameters. We also propose an interval method for testing multista- tionarity. We have tested homeostasis, absolute concentration robustness and multistationarity on a large collection of biochemical models from the Biomodels and DOCSS databases.
