β¦ Synopsis
A general procedure is described for determining the kinetic constants of the slow, tight-binding inhibition of enzyme-catalyzed reactions by analyzing the data of initial and steady-state rate. All unknown parameters can be determined from several simple, sequential calculations. This method is simple and rigorous. It is also applicable to the special case of slow-binding inhibition, where the total concentration of inhibitor is much higher than that of the enzyme. 1983 Academic Press, Inc.

A combined method for determining inhibition type, kinetic parameters, and inhibition coefficients is developed and presented. The method was validated by applying it to data obtained from batch kinetics of the aerobic cometabolism of 1,1,1-trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA) by a butane-grown mixed culture
