Introduction
E.casso uses the communication between cells made available by quorum sensing. Quorum diffuses away from one cell to the other. Because we wanted to find out how the quorums produced by Brush E.coli diffuse in our model, we applied the reaction-diffusion system to our model and analyzed the distribution and propagation of quorums. This section investigates how the quorums diffuse from one cell to the other which will provide crucial data for our final simulation.
Objectives
Answer the following questions,
- How fast does quorum diffuse into adjacent E. coli as rapidly as we predicted?
- How does the produced quorum diffuse with respect to time and space?
- How much quorum does the source E. coli ultimately transfer to neighboring E. coli?
