Mass Action Law

This paper presents a review of our original results obtained during the last decade. These results have been found theoretically for classical mass-action-law models of chemical kinetics and justified experimentally. In contrast with the traditional invariances, they relate to a special battery of kinetic experiments, not a single experiment. Two types of invariances are distinguished and described in detail: thermodynamic invariants, i.e., special combinations of kinetic dependences that yield the equilibrium constants, or simple functions of the equilibrium constants; and “mixed” kinetico-thermodynamic invariances, functions both of equilibrium constants and non-thermodynamic ratios of kinetic coefficients.

Mass Action Law

SummaryThe plasminogen-streptokinase complex called “activator” was present in diluted plasma in the form of a largely dissociated mixture. More than ⅞ of the streptokinase and plasminogen molecules were available for further activator formation.The activator is probably a dissociated complex of the formulaStreptokinase + Plasminogen ⇄ Activator.The fact that an increase in activator concentration by x times is obtained by multiplying either the streptokinase content by the factor y or the plasminogen concentration by the same factor y would point to a kinetic effect along the lines of the mass action law.
