Enzyme kinetic measurements performed on BMG LABTECH´s FLUOstar OPTIMA
BMG LABTECH

BMG LABTECH has developed a new evaluation software feature able to calculate the Km value as well as the maximal velocity (Vmax) from an enzymatic kinetic measurement.
Enzymes differ in their affinity to specific substrates and this affinity is represented by the Michaelis-Menten constant Km. The new software feature for enzyme kinetic offers fast and easy calculation of Km and Vmax. Available plots are the common Michaelis-Menten, Lineweaver-Burk, Eadie-Hofstee, Scatchard and Hanes kinetic f
