How do you determine the activity of an enzyme you can compare the concentration?

Enzyme activity can be measured by measuring the concentration of product of concentration of disappearing substrate but measuring concentration of product will give better idea about the enzyme activity.

How do you determine enzyme activity?

Enzymatic activities are measured by breakdown of the substrates and generation of products. The methods used for measuring enzymatic activities include spectrophotometry, fluorescence, and radiolabeling.

How do you determine enzyme concentration?

The amount of enzyme present in a reaction is measured by the activity it catalyzes. The relationship between activity and concentration is affected by many factors such as temperature, pH, etc. ... Enzyme Concentration..

How does enzyme activity vary with enzyme concentration?

Enzyme concentration: Increasing enzyme concentration will speed up the reaction, as long as there is substrate available to bind to. Once all of the substrate is bound, the reaction will no longer speed up, since there will be nothing for additional enzymes to bind to.
