    Thank you so much. I just couldn't figure this out with the materials provided to me by my professors. It's so hard sometimes to figure out these things out for yourself, when the given material is always in a foreign language and has many terms, which you only are familiar with half at the best circumstances..

    what if we have 2 plate for each dilution (duplo) how to calculate ?
    Example:

    Petri 1 287 31
    Petri 2 292 42
    Vol of stock transferred = 0.1 ml

    Please I have a Q, might be silly. now after counting it plate, tube (f) looks has low count, but after calculation it will be 10*8 in compared to tube (e). Does it mean higher count (f)?

    • @biologyexams4u
      @biologyexams4u  2 роки тому

      Hi Mandeep
      Phosphate buffered solution or isotonic saline solution (0.85%)is commonly used as both wont causes osmotic shock..other diluents is Sterile distilled water . Often the selection of diluents depends on the further procedure and also the type of microorganisms ... Like for cell count or for subculturing..
