Model simulations of predation of K. pneumoniae by B. bacteriovorus in human serum, with varying levels delayed successful attachment, allows the model to fit each independent experiment (see Fig. 5 for experimental results).The delayed attachment parameter values for each experiment are k₁ ^early = [1.433 × 10⁻¹⁴; 1.204 × 10⁻¹⁴; 3.999 × 10⁻¹²; 2.175 × 10⁻¹¹ _; 6.597 × 10⁻¹⁶; 2.304 × 10⁻¹⁶] and δ = [11.03; 10.29; 10.43; 10.55; 18.64; 17.49]. The remaining parameters which are fixed between experiments are given in Supplementary Table S2, in the supplementary material.
