Hi Zac, There is a Mathematica program called XCellerator that is written specifically to transform reactions into ODEs. See http://xcellerator.info/ and http://sourceforge.net/projects/xlr8r/ for more details. If you have further questions, let me know or contact the developers (see http://sourceforge.net/projects/xlr8r/).
