Nonlinear Fit of Michaelis-Menten model

Computes Michaelis-Menten model parameters

Description

The program determines the constants Rmax and Km of the Michaelis-Menten model using data given in Fundamentals of Chemical Reaction Engineering by M. E. Davis & R. J. Davis, McGraw Hill, 2003. This data represents the substrate (catechol) concentration versus time. This data was obtained using E. herbicola immobilized in a polymer gel to catalyse the reaction of catechol to form L-dopa.

• Required Products: Optimization Toolbox
• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP1)

Does not require Optim. Toolbox as claimed. Not a function; little help text; no user settable parameters; does nothing except duplicate the screen shot which is a figure found in the cited text. Demonstrates poor programming practices.
