Figure 10

Rate of plaque growth versus plaque size for different rate laws. The continuous line shows a mass action rate law with parameter 0.0004 and shows that the aggregation rate increases linearly with plaque size. The dashed and dotted lines show a rate law with Hill kinetics and the effect of changing the parameter which represents the level of plaques where the rate is half the maximal value.
