Growth of bacterial populations Growth rate (µmax) lag
Growth of bacterial populations Model of Baranyi and Roberts (1994) µmax=0.045 h-1 Lag=77 h
Modelling the bacterial growth rate Growth rates of L.monocytogenes as a function of temperature
Modelling the lag timeHistory-dependence of lag Growth of Listeria monocytogenes in broth, at 15 oC, after different subculturing procedures. The max.spec. growth rates are the same, but the lag times are different.
Lag: Quantify the delay with the number of missing generations m lag h0=mmax*lag work to be done during the lag. lnx0 h0
Interpretation of h0 , the “work to be done”, when adjusting to the new environment (i.e. during the lag period) More favourable environment: shorter lag, higher rate, but h0 lag/doubl.time is constant (Listeria monocytogenes at 5 and 10 oC).
Secondary Models • 2 types of secondary models • Response surface models Ex: sqrt(μmax)= a0+a1T+a2pH+a3T*pH+a4T2+a5pH2 • Non linear models Ex: sqrt(μmax)= b0(T-Tmin)(pH-pHmin) +ε +ε
Predictive model x (cell.conc.) (log scale) Temperature pH % salt, … Models x0 time lag
Response surface models • Identify a0, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5,… • Linear regression • Minimizing the Sum Square of Residuals
Response surface models • Outputs from software tools • Evaluation of fit • Parameter estimates • Significance of parameters • Confidence intervals,… Calculations based on assumptions
Checking model assumptions • The residuals follow a normal distribution • A normal probability plot of the residuals can be used to test normality (the points should lie along a straight line). • The residuals are independent, their variance is constant • Plot of residuals against the response variable and the explanatory variables in the model.
Checking model assumptions Transformation: Sqrt (spec.growth rate) Or Ln (spec. growth rate) residuals residuals 0 0 specific growth rate (h-1) Sqrt (specific growth rate (h-1))
Software outputsTest of hypothesis • a0=a1=a2=a3=a4=a5,…=0? • F test. Rejected (at 0.05%) if p<0.05 • ai=0? (0≤i≤p) • Rejected (at 0.05%) if p<0.05
