Abstract

In this work, we study the qualitative properties of a simple mathematical model inspired by antimicrobial resistance (AMR), focusing on the reversal of resistance. In particular, we analyze the model from three perspectives: ordinary differential equations (ODEs), stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by Brownian motion, and fractional differential equations (FDEs) with Caputo temporal derivatives. Finally, we perform numerical experiments using data from Escherichia coli exposed to colistin to assess the validity of the qualitative properties of the model.
