Abstract: | Present address: Unilever Research, Colworth Laboratory, Colworth House, Sharnbrook, Bedford MK44 1LQ, UK. Some mathematical properties of a simple nonautonomous deterministicgrowth model are presented. The model describes the lag phaseof bacterial growth as an adjustment of the population to anew environment after inoculation. A useful family of adjustmentfunctions is considered and some of its mathematicalproperties are given. |
