Mathematical model for the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the granuloma
In this work we formulate a model for the population dynamics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). Our main interest is to assess the impact of the competition among bacteria on the infection prevalence. For this end, we assume that Mtb population has two ty...
