- The best fit model (the model is shown in Equation 4) was determined by performing F-tests for nested models and using Akaike weights for non-nested models (see Materials and methods for more detail and Additional file 4). Listed parameters are: B
0 is the predicted initial shedding level, r is the rate of exponential change in shedding in the absence of MAP-specific cellular (as measured by LPT) and humoral (as measured by ELISA) immune responses, k
C is the predicted rate of reduction in shedding by the cellular immune response, k
H is the predicted rate of reduction in shedding by the humoral immune response. Negative values in shedding rate change r indicate predicted decline in shedding in the absence of measurable cellular and antibody responses. Negative values in k
C and k
H indicate increase in shedding with the presence of corresponding immune responses.
