Microbes by multiple capabilities

Find reconstructions that secrete all of one set of metabolites and take up all of another — e.g. “secretes butyrate and takes up lactate”, a cross-feeding-candidate filter. Predicted capability (max potential, unlimited medium; APOLLO + AGORA2). Add up to 5 metabolites in total.

Secretes (all of)
Takes up (all of)

Add at least one metabolite above.
