French term or phrase: coefficient de pente
Chemical field
Isabelle Lefresne
English translation:slope coefficient
Explanation:
As I mentionned before I believe that you are dealing with Dissolution Tests (probably concerning some drug) carried out with a dynamic optical measurement process using a spectrophotometer.

This slope coefficient represents then the slope of the curve representing the %dissolved as a function of the time, ie the rate at which the product dissolves in the solvant (usually water) at a given moment. If the curve is linear it's the slope of the straight.

I hope this helps.

I can probably answer some more of your questions (partially the Pic FEMO), but you MUST provide more context for the other questions. They cannot be answered properly without context. What seem irrelevant to the term for you could well be very relevant for me.

Good Luck
