  • 1-a The S50 andKS value were determined from best fit of the experimental data to the Hill equation, tight-binding equation or hyperbolic equation (Khan and Halpert, 2002).

  • 1-b The values in parentheses show the deviation obtained from best fit of the experimental data to the Hill equation, tight-binding equation or hyperbolic equation.

  • 1-c These data fit best to the tight binding equation.

  • 1-d The binding was too tight in these cases and a good estimate of the binding parameters could not be obtained.
