Catalytic isomerization of glucose to fructose by immobilized glucose isomerase in an aqueous-ethanol medium was studied. Using Michaelis-Menten equation and Haldane relationship, the main kinetic parameters were determined: Kmf, Vmf, Kmr, Vmr. By comparing the aqueous-ethanol medium with an aqueous solution, the measured values of Kmr and Kmf were increased in the aqueous-ethanol solution, whi...

microbiological analyses of soil chronically exposed to petroleum complex compounds of some oil springs in south of iran resulted in isolation and purification of a new native thermophilic strain which is capable to desulfurize petroleum sulfur compounds by 4-s mechanism. dibenzothiophene (dbt) was selected as a complex sulfur compound model and many experiments were done to identify the metabo...

The basis of enzyme kinetic modelling was established during the early 1900’s when the work of Leonor Michaelis and Maud Menten produced a pseudo-steady state equation linking enzymatic catalytic rate to substrate concentration (Michaelis & Menten, 1913). Building from the Michaelis-Menten equation, other equations used to describe the effects of modifiers of enzymatic activity were developed b...

Michaelis-Menten equation is a basic equation of enzyme kinetics and gives an acceptable approximation of real chemical reaction processes. Analyzing the derivation of this equation yields the fact that its good performance of approximating real reaction processes is due to MichaelisMenten curve (15). This curve is derived from Quasi-Steady-State Assumption(QSSA), which has been proved always t...

Michaelis-Menten kinetics are commonly used to represent enzyme-catalysed reactions in biochemical models. The Michaelis-Menten approximation has been thoroughly studied in the context of traditional differential equation models. The presence of small concentrations in biochemical systems, however, encourages the conversion to a discrete stochastic representation. It is shown that the Michaelis...
