The following problem arises in molecular biology. The surface of a bacterium is supposed to consist of several sites at which a foreign molecule may become attached if it is of the right composition. A molecule of this composition will be called acceptable. We consider a particular site and postulate that molecules arrive at the site according to a Poisson process with parameter ß. Among these molecules a proportion ß is acceptable. Unacceptable molecules stay at the site for a length of time which is exponentially distributed with parameter A. While at the site they prevent further attachments there. An acceptable molecule " fixes " the site preventing any further attachments. What is the probability that the site in question has not been fixed by time t?
