Collab,
We recently performed an experiment which is sort of the opposite of Verhulst. A special cell culture, suspended in an appropriate media, was held at a constant temperature.
The study was to analyze the rate at which cell death occurred at different temperatures.
For this study, the cell population's viability was sampled at 6 minute intervals up to 2 hours.
The resulting curve appears somewhat like an inverted Verhulst curve.
Using a model from an earlier post by Jean showing the Verhulst model, I tweaked the coefficients to get a best visual match.
Apparently, Verhulst is not the best model to fit my data.
Does Jean or any Collab have a suggestion for a better fit model?
Thanks,
Art
