Delays
This theory paper investigates how delays destabilize fixed points. This is a fundamentally different analysis, quite the opposite of trying to use delays to make limit cycles more attractive.
 * 1) Bratsun2002 pmid=16199522

This is not transcriptional delay, but rather delay through intermediate species, which is the principle that dominates previous delay studies.
 * 1) Monk2003 pmid=12932324

This experimental paper uses a plasmid that effectively contains a delay, used for another purpose entirely, but might be a good starting point for design.

Testing delays
This paper measures transfer curves and dynamics of a simple circuit
