Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was used to observe the enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis reaction of urea. Two kinetic parameters, the enzymatic conversion rate constant, kcat, and the Maichaelis constant, Km, for the urea (147 mmol · L^-1) / urease (3.0)〈 10 7 mmol· L^-1) enzymatic system in sodium phosphate buffer at pH 7.0 at T=(298.15 to 318.15)K were determined from the isothermal titration calorimetry experimental data. The results indicated that the urease-catalyzed reaction approximated well to the Michaelis-Menten equation under the experimental conditions. The effect of the temperature on the variation of the values of kcat can be correlated quantitatively to the Arrhenius equation with the apparent activation energy of 16.6 kJ ·mol^-1. The results showed a good example of effectively evaluating kinetic parameters for enzyme-catalyzed reaction by ITC. It is suggested that ITC should he suitable and have significant potential for the kinetic study of enzyme activity.
