In contrast to ibuprofen, aspirin is an irreversible inhibitor of PGH2 synthase, reacting with a Ser residue in the active site. You have incubated 5 µM enzyme with 1 mM aspirin and have found that 85% of the enzyme was inactivated in 30 minutes.
I found the pseudo first-order rate constant to be 0.063 min-1 and the second order rate constant is 0.0378 µM/min.
C) Suppose you wanted to use 5 mM aspirin and inactivate 99% of the enzyme. For how long should you allow the reaction to proceed?
D) Suppose that you incubate 1 µM enzyme with 1 mM aspirin for 30 minutes. Would you expect more or less that 85% of the enzyme to be inactivated? Explain your reasoning.
E) Suppose that you incubate 1 mM enzyme with 1 mM aspirin for 30 minutes. Would you expect more or less than 85% of the enzyme to be inactivated? Explain your reasoning.

Based on the document below, 1. Describe the hypothesis Chaudhuri et al ids attempting to evaluate; in other words, what is the goal of this paper? Why is he writing it? 2. Does the data presented in the paper support the hypothesis stated in the introduction? Explain. 3.According to Chaudhuri, what is the potential role of thew alkaline phosphatase in the cleanup of industrial waste.
