Experimental data and simulated swelling curves with the assumption of linear kinetics ( a = 0) and no delay ( τ = 0). The color lines with the + signs are the swelling curves from the experiments at different Ca²⁺-concentrations (40 - 140 μ M). The solid black lines are the corresponding rescaled numerical approximations of the volume (V (t)) obtained from the model assuming linear kinetics and no delay. Parameter b and the starting points of the approximations were optimized.
