Shortened Excel file of Thermotable (excel) computing standard (apparent) chemical potentials, standard biochemical potentials, and standard metabolic potentials

Version 1

This is the abbreviated excel file used for the Thermotable calculations of Westerhoff et al (2026) FEBS J, in press entitled 'Metabolic thermodynamics: pertinent reference state and energy potentials' It is also Supplement S4 of that paper. As compared to the full file it addresses much fewer chemical species, but it does contain all the excel-based computation mechanisms, which are further explained in supplement S5 of the publication. The Table allows variously transformed and gauge-shifted and reorganized standard chemical potentials.

It is based on standard chemical potentials obtained from a substantial number of literature sources, ireferred to by 'source codes' (also in a second sheet in the file), i.e.:
