- Abstract
The kinetics of sucrose hydrolysis by invertase was studied in order to find a comprehensive model for the reaction pathway and mechanism. First, three common models of Michaelis-Menten (MM), substrate inhibition (S2), and substrate clusters' inhibition (S3(I)) were investigated. The third model was found to better predict the initial sucrose concentration. Then, the S3(I) model was modified to cover the remaining pathway (S3(II)). Finally, a new comprehensive model (S3(III)) was evaluated, which in addition to what is considered in the two previously mentioned models (S3(I) and S3(II)) also involved the initial time lag. The model predictions showed an excellent agreement with the experimental data. The mean absolute error for the MM model is significantly reduced for the S3(III) model.
