A comparison of variant theories of intact biochemical systems. I. enzyme-enzyme interactions and biochemical systems theory
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
The need for a well-structured theory of intact biochemical systems becomes increasingly evident as one attempts to integrate the vast knowledge of individual molecular constituents, which has been expanding for several ...
The spread and persistence of infectious diseases in structured populations
(Elsevier, 1988)
A basic assumption of many epidemic models is that populations are composed of a homogeneous group of randomly mixing individuals. This is not a realistic assumption. Most actual populations are divided into a number of ...
Escherichia coil growth dynamics: A three-pool biochemically based description
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1988-02-05)
A three-pool growth model of an individual Escherichia coli cell is described herein. The model is based on a previously developed chemically structured complex single cell growth model. The reduction in model complexity ...
A note on chain-binomial models of epidemic spread: What is wrong with the Reed-Frost formulation?
(Elsevier, 1987-11)
Derivations of the Reed-Frost model are analyzed in terms of the assumptions about the probabilistic process used and in terms of internal consistency. Internally consistent derivations can be exhibited but require assumptions ...
In vitro colony formation by cryopreserved primary human tumor cells
(Elsevier, 1984-06)
The effect of cryopreservation on the ability of primary human cancer cells to form colonies in a two-layer agar system was examined. Although considerable variation occurred, concentrations of 5 or 10% dimethylsulfoxide ...
Strategies for representing metabolic pathways within biochemical systems theory: Reversible pathways
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
The search for systematic methods to deal with the integrated behavior of complex biochemical systems has over the past two decades led to the proposal of several theories of biochemical systems. Among the most promising ...
Recasting nonlinear differential equations as S-systems: a canonical nonlinear form
(Elsevier, 1987-11)
An enormous variety of nonlinear differential equations and functions have been recast exactly in the canonical form called an S-system. This is a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations, each with the same ...
