Thermodynamic Limits and Optimality of Microbial Growth

Understanding microbial growth with the use of mathematical models has a long history that dates back to the pioneering work of Jacques Monod in the 1940s. Monod’s famous growth law expressed microbial growth rate as a simple function of the limiting nutrient concentration. However, to exp...
