    The multivariate master equation for a general reaction-diffusion system is solved perturbatively, in the vicinity of a bifurcation point leading to symmetry-breaking transitions. The possibility to express the result through a Brazovskij type of potential is examined, and a comparison with the Langevin analysis of Walgraef et al. [Adv. Chem. Phys. 49, 311 (1982)] is performed.
