Kinetics

Kinetics (, movement or to move) may refer to:

== Science and medicine == Kinetics (physics), the study of motion and its causes Rigid body kinetics, the study of the motion of rigid bodies Chemical kinetics, the study of chemical reaction rates Enzyme kinetics, the study of biochemical reaction rates catalysed by an enzyme Michaelis–Menten kinetics, the widely accepted general model of enzyme kinetics Goldbeter–Koshland kinetics, describe a steady-state solution for a 2-state biological system Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetics Receptor–ligand kinetics, a branch of chemical kinetics in which the kinetic species are defined by different non-covalent bindings and/or conformations of the molecules involved, which are denoted as receptor(s) and ligand(s) Hill kinetics Pharmacokinetics, the study of the processes a substance undergoes in the animal body, particularly the rates at which it is absorbed, distributed, metabolised and excreted One-compartment kinetics, for a chemical compound specifies that the uptake in the compartment is proportional to the concentration outside the compartment, and the elimination is proportional to the concentration inside the compartment Flip-flop kinetics, the pharmacokinetics of sustained-release or extended-release drug formulations Toxicokinetics, the branch of pharmacokinetics dealing with compounds that are toxic or can be administered in toxic doses Human kinetics or kinesiology, the study of human biomechanical movement C0t analysis, also known as DNA recombination kinetics
