Rate of change ratio
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-009937
The ratio of the rate of change of one quantity to the rate of change of another related quantity. This dimensionless value provides insight into the relative speeds at which two processes are occurring or two variables are changing. It is often used in metabolic studies to compare the dynamics of different biochemical pathways.
