Explain IC 50 Value of the α-Glucosidase and optimum concentration?

30 January 2017 1 6K Report

Dear experties could able to explain

The IC50 of an enzyme inhibitor is simply the concentration of the inhibitor that causes a 50% decrease in the activity of the enzyme, under the specific condition of the assay.

I don't know what you mean by "optimal concentration."
