...Finally, let us mention that although far from the specific contents of this paper, various interesting papers investigate crowding and swarming phenomena at the low scale (molecular and cellular) in biology, such as [155], [207], [212]....

...More complicated models include specific features, such as the presence of some lubricating fluid produced by the cells (see [11]), the effects of chemotaxis described for example in [11, 15], or different states of mobility for bacteria, as in [14]....

...Variations around this model can also be interpreted in terms of bacterial motion as proposed in Kessler and Levine [13], and Golding et al [6]; they replace the growth term unv by h(u)v where h(·) is a truncation function for small values of u and h ≈ 1 for large values....

...Rather than a limitation on growth for small values of u as in the Kessler and Levine model, Mimura et al [19] proposed a limitation on the transition rate to the passive state for large values of u or v....

...Similarly, swarming in Proteus mirabilis is not controlled by nutrient limitation [4, 24]....

...Many additional factors have been incorporated into models, such as the observed higher motility of cells at the tip of the dendrites (region of higher population density and higher nutrient concentration) in [11], a surfactant secreted by the cells that may change the liquid surface and thus the migration speed of cells [15, 6], or differentiation from swimmers to swarmers for Proteus mirabilis as modelled in [4, 5]....
