| Summary: | As we all know, bacteria is different from virus which with certain types can be killed by the immune cells in the body. The brucellosis, a bacterial disease, can invade the body by indirect transmission from environment, which has not been researched by combining with immune cells. Considering the effects of immune cells, we put a minimum infection dose of brucellosis invading into the dairy cows as an immunological threshold and get a switch model. In this paper, we accomplish a thorough dynamics analysis of a SEIB switch model. On the one hand, we can get a disease-free and bacteria-free steady state and up to three endemic steady states which may be thoroughly analyzed in different cases of a minimum infection dose in a switch model. On the other hand, we calculate the basic reproduction number R0 and know that the disease-free and bacteria-free steady state is a global stability when R0<1, and the one of the endemic steady state is a conditionally global stability when R0>1. We find that different amounts of R0 may lead to different steady states of brucellosis, and considering the effects of immunology is more serious in mathematics and biology. |
