Figure 1. NPP development and Hb consumption as a function of time post-invasion.

Figure 1

(A) Normalized time-course of NPP development and of Hb consumption as originally encoded in the model [9],[10] represented as fraction of maximal NPP permeability (PNPP/Pmax NPP) and maximal digested Hb (YHb/Ymax Hb), respectively (see equations S21 and 22 in Text S1). The half-time and slope values for the NPP and Hb curves shown here were (in h) 27-2 and 30-2, respectively. (B) cation and anion permeabilities through NPPs as a function of time. Note the difference of three orders of magnitude between cation and anion permeabilities.
