  Archibald Vivian Hill - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Archibald Vivian Hill CH CBE (September 26, 1886–June 3, 1977) was a British physiologist, one of the founders of the diverse disciplines of biophysics and operations research.
His early work involved the characterisation of what came to be known as Michaelis-Menten kinetics and the use of the Hill coefficient.
Hill returned to Cambridge in 1919 before taking the chair in physiology at the Victoria University of Manchester in 1920.

 Archibald Hill Summary
Hill, however, decided to forego the study of the chemical process to concentrate instead on the heat changes that occur during muscular activity.
Hill theorized that since the heat produced by the two phases of muscular contraction was not enough to eliminate all the lactic acid, it probably changed back to its precursor.

For a Hill coefficient equal to 2.4, the damping of the oscillations is much more restrained: After 1700 minutes, during which time more than 14 somites are formed, the oscillation amplitude is greater than after 3 oscillations in the system with a Hill coefficient equal to 2 (Fig.

 Chapter 5 Writing Rate Laws for Binding Processes
In a classic study of the kinetics of oxygen binding to hemoglobin, A.V. Hill formulated a modification of the usual binding equation that permits it to account for cooperative behavior.
This ratio, just like the corresponding fraction without the Hill coefficient, always falls in the range from zero to one, and represents the fraction of receptors occupied by hormone.
As a specific example, notice that for a Hill coefficient of 2, a doubling of stimulus (from 0.2 to 0.4) yields a 10-fold increase in response (from 0.01 to 0.1).

 Patent 6,160,098
The Hill coefficient is a measure of the cooperativity of the hemoglobin molecule.
The method by which cooperativity (as measured by the Hill coefficient) is controlled is by modulating at least one "Hill coefficient-affecting paramter" such as the time, temperature, pH, rate of addition of hemoglobin, or molar ratio of the crosslinking reagent to hemoglobin during the crosslinking reaction.
The target Hill coefficient is in the range from about 1.0 to 3.0, preferably greater than about 1.7, most preferably about 2.2.

 BioMed Central | Full text | Effect of thymol on kinetic properties of Ca and K currents in rat skeletal muscle
First, the Hill coefficient estimated for the thymol-induced block of K currents was close to unity (1.51), indicating the involvement of a single, independent binding site.
It should be noted, however, that due to the hydrophobic character of the molecule thymol may accumulate in the membrane and could also modify the local lipid environment of the channel protein.
These additional unspecific lipid-interactions may account for the fractional values of the Hill coefficients, but not for the differences observed in the thymol-induced block of Ca and K currents.
