Values were determined experimentally for filters incubated over LB agar or floated over different strengths of LB broth.
agn, maximum specific growth rate; gr, maximum colony radial growth rate; Nmax, maximum cell yield. Surface area for colonisation (A) and initial colony radius (r0), were the same for all media and their values are 1.77×108μm2 and 0.5 μm, respectively.
