Meena, A.; Eswari, A.; Rajendran, L.
Mathematical modelling of enzyme kinetics reaction mechanisms and analytical solutions of non-linear reaction equations.
(English)
[J] J. Math. Chem. 48, No. 2, 179-186 (2010). ISSN 0259-9791; ISSN 1572-8897/e

Summary: A boundary value problem in basic enzyme reactions is formulated and approximate expressions for substrate and product concentrations are presented. {\it J.-H. He} and {\it X.-H. Wu}'s [Chaos Solitons Fractals 29, No.~1, 108--113 (2006; Zbl 1147.35338)] variational iteration method is used to give approximate and analytical solutions of the nonlinear reaction equations containing a nonlinear term related to the enzymatic reaction. The relevant analytical solutions for the substrate, enzyme, substrate-enzyme and product concentration profiles are discussed in terms of dimensionless reaction diffusion parameters $K$, $\lambda$ and $\varepsilon$.
