Survival function, probability density function and bacterial release on rupture.

Left: the macrophage survival probability function, S(t). Centre: the bacterial load is proportional to . The vertical line is (6). Right: the function that gives the mean number of bacteria released per macrophage. The parameter values, taken from Ref. [23], are β = 0.15 h−1, μ = 0.01 h−1 and δ = 0.001 h−1. The dashed lines show the corresponding functions when μ = 0.
