How long is the in vivo Bb generation time?
Your question is touching the forefront of research. Definition of generation time T T is the time between two successive Bb cell divisions • http://www.Lymenet.de/symptoms/cycles/statistics.htm#TBb in vitro T The in vitro generation time (at standard growth conditions) is near 1/2 day. • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:80/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=1416868&dopt=Abstract • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:80/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=3665899&dopt=Abstract • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:80/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=8852456&dopt=Abstract in vivo T The Bb generation time in vivo is yet unknown, depending on the immune system of the infected person. Similarly as the rate at which Bb replicate in vitro depends among others on the growth conditions and on the growth phase in which the Bb are, the in vivo replication rate depends on the effect and strength of the immune system of the host (the ill person). In a healthy person, th
