Parameters
The parameter of this reaction is the degradation rate of C (). The parameter values were derived from measurements and estimations of autoinducer degradation rates from other bacteria (AHL, PAI2).

Chen et al. empirically calculated the degradation rate of the autoinducer PAI2 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa cultures and reported a best-fit degradation constant of .
Additionally, the degradation rates of the quorum sensing autoinducer AHL have been measured in vitro by Kaufmann et al. and the reported rates for different AHLs are between . Weber et al. also reported that the degradation rate of AHL in vivo has been estimated, and is within the range . With regards to SCBs in particular, according to a review by E. Takano these molecules are very stable and can be still detected after more than 12h into stationary phase. Therefore, we can assume that the degradation rate of SCB is slower than the ones reported for other autoinducers and will not exceed the value . |
Parameters with uncertainty
The most plausible parameter value for the is decided to be and the confidence interval . This means that the mode of the PDF is 0.0002 and the range where 95% of the values are found is between and .
The probability distribution for the parameter, adjusted accordingly in order to reflect the above values, is the following:
The location and scale parameters of the distribution are:
