Hi Delboy,

As far as I know, Henning Schmidt's Matlab package in its latest or
upcoming release can generate even the SBML reaction network from such
ODEs, but I guess you might need a some additional information on
compartments etc.

Generally I would recommend to have the full reaction network in SBML
rather then ODEs (SBML rate rules) only. This just contains more
information about the model and allows a range of software/algorithms to
better analyse your system. It also makes extensions of the models, or
integration with other models, easier.
