   This condition is intuitive: if the sigmoid-like positive and negative affectors that compose the biphasic equation were positioned “further apart” by increasing the interval lnK + − lnK - (e.g., Fig B in S1 File ), then saturation levels for the positive affector more closely match the starting levels of the negative affector, and in sigmoid models that exhibit very good agreement with the overall biphasic relationship.
