Abstract:
ENZEDUC 1.0 is a software package developed in Microsoft QuickBASIC v7.1 for computation of hyperbolic enzyme kinetics. The educational focus of the package is laboratory practical teaching. The program can manage a maximum of 18 substrate concentration values and 72 reaction rate values for each substrate concentration (1296 pairs of values). Samples can also be of unequal sizes. More than one reaction rate value for each substrate concentration can be handled. Real-time screen plots are obtained for the Michaelis-Menten function and the most popular linear transformations. Printer outputs are available. Hardware requirements are minimum 640 Kb RAM, EGA graphics card and 80286 processor.
