Determination of binding constants from titration data This is a development version!
Stuff might (will!) go wrong...

Welcome!

On this webpage you can determine binding/association constants from titration data using any equilibrium model. We do not use commonly known approximation methods such as the Benesi–Hildebrand or Scatchard plot, but we use non-linear optimization to fit the observed titration data to calculated titration data, which we calculate by numerically solving equilibrium concentrations from a set of binding constants and equilibrium reactions. We therefore don't have to algebraically solve for the equilibrium species concentrations (Hunter's method; recently implemented by Thordarson at Supramolecular.org), which limits the equilibrium models to 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 stoichiometries. Our website offers functionality similar to HypNMR.
