     As a demonstration, we first establish the correctness of the Jacobian matrices for kinetic models of hydrogen, methane, ethylene, and isopentanol oxidation, then demonstrate the performance achievable on CPUs and GPUs using pyJac via matrix evaluation timing comparisons..

2. (chemistry) A reaction in which the atoms of an element lose electrons and the oxidation state of the element increases.
