Develop a model to describe the stability of a chemostat culture for a plasmid-containing cul-
ture. For some cultures, plasmids make a protein product (e.g., colicin in E. coli) that kills
plasmid-free cells but does not act on plasmid-containing cells. Assume that the rate of
killing by colicin is
where
is the rate constant for the killing and C is the colicin
concentration. Assume that the colicin production is first order with respect to
ture. For some cultures, plasmids make a protein product (e.g., colicin in E. coli) that kills
plasmid-free cells but does not act on plasmid-containing cells. Assume that the rate of
killing by colicin is

Explanation
According to the given data:
Let plasmi...
