Guinea pig viral growth kinetics at different temperatures.

<p>The measurements by Lowen <i>et al. </i><a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0037088#pone.0037088-Lowen2" target="_blank">[4]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0037088#pone.0037088-Lowen3" target="_blank">[5]</a> of the influenza concentration observed in nasal titers obtained from inoculated guinea pigs maintained at different temperatures. Blue circles: T = 5°C; red squares: T = 30°C. Dashed lines are fits to a numerical model for influenza viral dynamics <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0037088#pone.0037088-Baccam1" target="_blank">[18]</a>; solid lines are analytical estimates given by Equation 1.
