## Abstract The details of the chemotactic response of Salmonella typhimurium to gradients of Lβserine have been examined in some detail. Two relatively macroscopic techniques have been employed to measure the bacterial response. These include measurements of the average velocity as the bacterial p

## Abstract Swimming bacteria sense and respond to chemical signals in their environment. Chemotaxis is the directed migration of a bacterial population toward increasing concentrations of a chemical that they perceive to be beneficial to their survival. Bacteria that are indigenous to groundwater
A mathematical model was developed to simulate the movement of chemotactic bacteria into and within a capillary tube containing a metabolizable chemoattractant. The model was based on a material balance that accounts for the transport of bacteria and chemoattractant as well as consumption of the sub
