Abstract
This paper describes the application of a simple log-linear model to suspension cultures of the species Catharanthus roseus G. Don. Data obtained experimentally have been interpolated by a cubic spline to give data points of regular time period. A logarithmic transformation has been applied and a linear model fitted to these transformed variables. The results show that there is a reasonable fit to the experimental data cited.
Using this model a one-step ahead prediction is made for a series of untried experimental variables, and the results generated are compared with the experimental data subsequently obtained.
