LABMAN--LAB ASSISTANT FOR BIOCHEMICAL CALCULATIONS

描述（改编自申请人的摘要）： 这个应用程序是生产Labman，一个基于计算机的实验室， 助理和导师。 Labman将表演各种常见的 与储备液制备相关的实验室计算， 缓冲液的制备和性质，分析测定，化学 动力学、酶动力学、药代动力学和配体结合分析。 Labman将在两种模式下运行，操作和教程。 在 操作模式，将指定计算和所需的答案 制作。 在教程模式下，与同伴一起 手动，计算的物理化学基础，例如， 分子群和电荷的守恒定律， 化学平衡将被显示。 Labman将是菜单驱动的。用户需要知道常用名称 但数学公式将是 提供了 化学性质数据库将提供分子 权重、pK等， 通过选择 所需的化学名称从一个列表中。 用户可以扩展 数据库中有实验室独有的特殊化合物。

DESCRIPTION (adapted from the applicant's abstract): The objective of this application is to produce Labman, a computer-based laboratory assistant and tutor. Labman will perform a wide variety of common laboratory computations, related to preparation of stock solutions, preparation and properties of buffers, analysis of assays, chemical kinetics, enzyme kinetics, pharmacokinetics, and ligand binding analysis. Labman will operate in two modes, operational and tutorial. In the operational mode, calculations will be specified and the desired answers produced. In the tutorial mode, and in association with a companion manual, the physicochemical basis of the computations, e.g., conservation laws for molecular groups, and charge, and the equations of chemical equilibrium will be displayed. Labman will be menu-driven.The user will need to know the common names for requested computations, but the mathematical formulas will be provided. A database of chemical properties will provide molecular weights, pK's, etc., which will become accessible by selecting the desired chemical name from an alphabetized list. The user may extend the database with specialized compounds unique to a laboratory.
