1.
This practical aims to determine the enzyme kinetic parameters V max and
Km. In order to do this, a continuous enzyme assay will be performed and a
graph of initial rates and substrate concentration will be drawn. The result is a
rectangular hyperbola. The rate of reaction and the effect of substrate
concentration on the initial rate will be analyzed. In addition, Michael's
constant will also be analyzed.
This practical also aims to convert the absorbance measurements into
concentrations, absorbance per unit time measurements into mole product
produced per unit time or molarity change per unit time. Through this
practical, we will be able to understand the role of enzymes and pH in product
formation.
