Super Aquarius Spectrophotometers have a
Versatile Kinetics Analysis Package

Reaction Kinetics

Single and multi-cell Kinetics are both available with reaction plots displayed on screen and printed. Regression analysis is applied to the user selected portion of the reaction curves (t1 - t2) and results are reported in Units/Litre.

Data may be reprocessed as required and curves may be stored security code protected. Sample temperature control is available for single cells and four and six cell changers, using either water circulation or thermoelectric temperature control.

Advanced Kinetics

An example of advanced Kinetics is shown. Raw Kinetics data generated by the Super Aquarius with known substrate concentration was captured by DataStream and transferred into Grafit (version 4).

Using a suitable graphical template the Michaelis-Menton curve was automatically plotted together with the chosen transformation, Lineweaver Berk, from which the values of Km and Vmax were automatically extracted.
