Stability analysis of an enteropathogen population growing within a heterogeneous group of animals
Faculty of Sciences, Universitat Autónoma de Barcelona, 08193 Bellaterra, 08193 Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain |
An autonomous semi-linear hyperbolic pde system for the proliferation of bacteria within a heterogeneous population of animals is presented and analysed. It is assumed that bacteria grow inside the intestines and that they can be either attached to the epithelial wall or as free particles in the lumen. A condition involving ecological parameters is given, which can be used to decide the existence of endemic equilibria as well as local stability properties of the non-endemic one. Some implications on phage therapy are addressed.
Keywords:
Mathematical epidemiology,
phage therapy,
steady state stability,
spatially structured population,
semilinear formulation,
characteristic equation.

Figure 1.
Bifurcation diagram showing epidemic progression (dark regions) or eradication (white regions) in a system with two hosts. The changing parameters are the fraction of bacteriophage given to the first host ($q_0^1/(q_0^1+q_0^2)$ ranging from 0 to 1) and its detachment rate ($\delta_1$ ranging from 0 to 1.5). The bacterial and bacteriophage distributions along the intestine once the system has converged to the equilibria are shown for two different set of parameters A and B. The dashed line refers to attached bacteria while gray color is used for host one and black for host two. The other fix parameters used to do the numeric simulations are the total bacteriophage dose per time unit $q_0^1+q_0^2=11$ and: $c_h=l_h=1$ , $\gamma_1^h(u)=1-u$ , $\gamma_2^h(v)=1-v$ , $\alpha_h =4$ , $b=4$ , $\kappa_1^h=0.06$ , $\kappa_2^h=0.1$ , $\lambda_1^h=\lambda_2^h=0.1$ , $\mu_1=0.4$ and $\mu_2=0.1$ for all $h\in{1,2}$ and $\delta_2=0.5$ . Notice that the two hosts only differ in their detachment rate ($\delta_1$ and $\delta_2$ ) and the treatment received ($q_0^1$ and $q_0^2$ ).
