In view of the difficulties in finding the precise value of Michaelis-Menten constant (K M) and maximum net current (I max) of a biosensor from linear plots, we framed two modified non-linear equations employing Michaelis-Menten equation. In this work, data of lactate detecting sensor were used to exemplify practicability and accuracy of the modified Michaelis-Menten equation. Standard and modified Michaelis-Menten model was normalized using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. The validity of the two modified Michaelis-Menten models was statistically analyzed using numerical error analysis, unpaired student t-Test and Akaike's Information Criterion (AIC) method, and the results were satisfactory. This method is quite easy and has assured convergence with no initial guess for K M and I max .
