In this paper, the authors use the logistic temporal solution of the generalized Michaelis-Menten kinetics to provide a quantum basis for the tunnelling time and energy evaluations of Brownian enzymic reactions. The mono-substrate and mixed inhibition cases are treated and the associated quantum diagrams of the reaction mechanisms are depicted in terms of intermediate enzyme complexes. The methodology is suited for practically controlling the enzymic activity throughout absorption spectroscopy.
