## Abstract The sensitivity of the period of the Belousov–Zhabotinsky oscillations to the rate constants and initial conditions of our previously proposed mechanism is computed by the technique recently developed for this purpose and shown to be valid in our analysis of the Oregonator. The principa

✦ Synopsis
A recently published kinetic model of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction was studied by the feature sensitivity analysis of the slow bromide consumption and slow bromide production periods of the relaxing-type oscillatory system. The computed sensitivities allowed us to reveal the kinetic importance of the 17 individual reactions during the two, "kinetically homogeneous" states of the oscillation. Similarities and differences in the relative kinetic importances of the reaction steps were carefully studied when changing the magnitude of the rate constants (high set and low set). Of the 17 reactions examined, the attack of Ce4+ on malonic acid proved t o be an essential step of the mechanism. Using the low set, there emerge more reactions which significantly affect the length of the two kinetic states.

The Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillatory reaction containing malic acid as the substrate has been studied in a detailed way at room temperature using electron paramagnetic resonance and potentiometric techniques and there is an excellent agreement between these two methods.
## Abstract Our previous mechanistic model for the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction has been revised to include a more realistic set of reactions for the oxidation pathways of the organic intermediates. A few other rate constants have also been modified to include new information. The revised mechanis
