Cogitation from monod equation: discussion of three similar equations in biological undergraduate teaching

Abstract:

This article introduces and compares three similar equations in biology and related major undergraduate teaching: Monod equation related to the kinetics of microbial cell growth, Michaelis-Menten equation related to the enzymatic reaction kinetics, and Langmuir equation related to adsorption separation. We hope this article can provide reference for relevant professional teachers’ teaching and students’ learning.
