Bistable bacterial growth dynamics in the presence of antimicrobial agents

2018-05-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The outcome of a given antibiotic treatment on the growth capacity of bacteria is largely dependent on the initial population size (the Inoculum Effect, IE). For some specific classical antibiotic drugs this phenomenon is well established in both in-vitro and in-vivo studies, and its precise mechanisms, its clinical implications and its mathematical modelling are at the forefront of current re...
