Biochemical Thermodynamics: Applications of Mathematica |
| Robert A. Alberty (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA) |
| Navigate the complexities of biochemical thermodynamics with Mathematica® Chemical reactions are studied under the constraints of constant temperature and constant pressure; biochemical reactions are studied under the additional constraints of pH and, perhaps, pMg or free concentrations of other metal ions. As more intensive variables are specified, more thermodynamic properties of a system are defined, and the equations that represent thermodynamic properties as a function of independent variables become more complicated.
This sequel to Robert Alberty's popular Thermodynamics of Biochemical Reactions describes how researchers will find Mathematica® a simple and elegant tool, which makes it possible to perform complex calculations that would previously have been impractical. Biochemical Thermodynamics: Applications of Mathematica® provides a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of biochemical thermodynamics using Mathematica® to practically resolve thermodynamic issues. Topics covered include: *Thermodynamics of the dissociation of weak acids *Apparent equilibrium constants *Biochemical reactions at specified temperatures and various pHs *Uses of matrices in biochemical thermodynamics *Oxidoreductase, transferase, hydrolase, and lyase reactions *Reactions at 298.15K *Thermodynamics of the binding of ligands by proteins *Calorimetry of biochemical reactions
