Lengths, surfaces, and volumes of cells growing in steady state at 37 °C

Organism	Bacteria Escherichia coli
Reference	Trueba FJ, Koppes LJ. Exponential growth of Escherichia coli B/r during its division cycle is demonstrated by the size distribution in liquid culture. Arch Microbiol. 1998 Jun169(6):491-6. p.492 table 1PubMed ID9575234
Method	Electron microscopy
Comments	The size distributions at the instant of birth [O(x)] and cellular separation [f(x)] were estimated from deeply constricted cells, i.e., from cells just before division. Let n ?(x) denote predicted frequency of cells of size x and y(x) denote observed frequency.
