ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the generative mechanism of bacterial wave growth in view of the open living system of microorganism. Methods With the single strain of bacterium as the subject, the nonlinear method of the dynamic systems and the analyzing method of the numerical simulation were used to study the effect of the changing environment on the bacterial growth. Results A mathematical model of the relationship between the bacterial wave growth and environment was established. Conclusion This model is verified to be scientific and its numerical simulation results are obtained, providing a helpful quantitative analysis for the research on the laws of bacterial wave growth.
