Which factor limits reaction throughput in enzyme bioreactors?

A)Substrate diffusion to enzyme active site
B)Accumulation of product inhibits catalysis
C)Denaturation rate depends on concentration
D)Stirring reduces wall shear stress

💡 Explanation

Substrate diffusion to active sites limits throughput because the Michaelis-Menten kinetics depend on encounter rate. Slower diffusion thereby constrains the reaction rate rather than denaturation depending directly on concentration.
