This study presents an analysis of M. tuberculosis growth data obtained using the BACTEC MGIT 960 system and respective mathematical models. The system is based on the detection of a decrease in oxygen level in the broth due to the bacterial respiration. It is shown that recordings sampled with a 1 hour rate provide an opportunity to distinguish between the oxygen consumption of growing cells and active cells division when the density of micro-organisms is sufficient to enter into the synchronized division mode. More specifically, the growth of culture is continuous only with large initial dilutions; otherwise, there are jumps between different growth stages with a time interval of 13–15 h. The combination of the oxygen-quenching kinetics for an analytic reagent and the population growth kinetics resulted in a mathematical model, which consists of mixing Verhulst's and Gompertz's models. The parameters of such mixing and switching between the models' prevalences are discussed with respect to oxygen uptake reactions reflected in the changes in the experimentally registered fluorescence level. |
