New! Dynamic Kinetic Simulation and Global Data Fitting Software
The KinTek Explorer is a powerful software package that will change the way you look at your kinetic data. Representing a paradigm shift in data fitting, the KinTek Explorer takes you past all the simplifying assumptions normally used in fitting kinetic data to extract mechanistic information.
Conventional data fitting requires simplifying assumptions to allow mathematical solutions of equations describing a chosen model. This is followed by fitting the data to analytical functions, replotting of observed rates and, finally, extraction of rate constants according to the assumed model. With the release of the KinTek Explorer, conventional methods of data fitting are obsolete!
Data are fit directly to the model based on numerical integration of the rate equations, and multiple experiments can be fit simultaneously!
