Enzyme Activity Experiments Using a Simple Spectrophotometer
Hurlbut, Jeffrey A.; And Others
Journal of Chemical Education, 54, 7, 442-3, Jul 77
Experimental procedures for studying enzyme activity using a Spectronic 20 spectrophotometer are described. The experiments demonstrate the effect of pH, temperature, and inhibitors on enzyme activity and allow the determination of Km, Vmax, and Kcat. These procedures are designed for teaching large lower-level biochemistry classes. (MR)
