title: Fitting progress curves in assays of slow-binding enzyme inhibitors.
abstract: Practical aspects of fitting progress curves deriving from assays of slow-binding enzyme inhibitors in order to extract characteristic parameters is briefly discussed. An approach little-used, but which may provide more accurate estimates, is the simultaneous analysis of two assays differing from one another in the order of addition of reactants.
