A simple criterion for mirror symmetry breaking in a non-linear chemical system is presented. The selection effect of external asymmetric agents in the process of generation and amplification of biomolecular asymmetry is studied. It is pointed out that this effect will play an important role at bifurcation point, but when the asymmetry of a system has been amplified to a certain extent, a weak asymmetric agent will no longer be able to change the chirality of the system.
提出了一种非线性化学系统中镜像对称性破缺的简单判据。研究了外部不对称因素在生物分子不对称性产生和放大过程中的选择作用。指出这种作用在分岔点将起重要作用，但当系统的不对称性放大到一定程度时，微弱的不对称因素将不再能够改变系统的手性。
