Abstract
AGREEING with Prof. J. B. S. Haldane's view that “Squabbles as to priority are undignified”1, I point out that in 1932 C. S. Hanes2 used the linear form x/v = x/V + K/V of the Michaelis equation for his experimental results with amylase, where v is the initial rate of hydrolysis and x the initial concentration of starch.
