| Abstract: | The numerical study of a glycolytic model formed by a system of three delay differential equations reveals a quasiperiodicity route to chaos. When the delay changes in our biochemical system, we can observe the emergence of a strange attractor that replaces a previous torus. This behavior happens both under a constant input flux and when the frequency of the periodic substrate input flux changes. The results obtained under periodic input flux are in agreement with experimental observations. |
