A kinetic model for plasmid curing.

Abstract:

:A simple mathematical model of drug-induced plasmid elimination (curing) considering density-dependent growth rates and plasmid transfers is presented. It describes nonlinear population dynamics of conjugative plasmids during in vitro curing experiments in batch culture. The model was tested on kinetics of acridine orange curing of F'lac plasmid. Effects of density dependence, plasmid elimination, selection for plasmidless segregants, conjugation, initial and maximal population density, and postsegregational killing on curing kinetics are simulated and discussed.
