Summary Introduction

To review:

The reactions that take placein dilute solution obey the rule of reaction kinetics. Relation of this approach with the investigation of enzymes in living cells.

Introduction:

The purpose of studying enzyme kinetics is to understand the working as well as the metabolism of enzymes in a livingorganism. The reaction that takes place under laboratory condition and the one taking place in living cells are different fromeach other.
