^aSimulations and data are compared in Fig. 1 to 3, respectively. 

^bNumbers in parentheses refer to sum-of-square errors in capillary accumulations between model simulations and the data (10⁵ CFU²). 

^cBest-fit and standard deviations as determined by regression analysis. 

^dMean and standard deviation of triplicate values calculated from the accumulations in the blank capillary. 

^eError ranges are standard deviations of fitted values.
