a) 1.6 µmol per minute
b) 16 µmol per litre per minute
c) 0.067 µmol per mg protein per minute
An enzyme sample contains 24 mg protein per mL. Twenty µL of this sample in a standard incubation volume of 0.1 mL catalysed the conversion of substrate X to product Y at a rate of 1.6 nmol per minute. Calculate the velocity in terms of:
a) µmol per minute
b) µmol per litre per minute
c) µmol per mg protein per minute
