{wiki=Henderson_limit}
The Henderson limit is a concept in the field of biochemistry and physiology, referring to a threshold beyond which an enzyme reaction can no longer proceed at an increasing rate due to saturation of the enzyme's active sites. More specifically, the Henderson limit is often associated with the behavior of enzymes or substrates in a reaction, where the rate of reaction plateaus despite increases in substrate concentration.
