You have performed a serial dilution of an unknown sample and counted 73 CFU on a countable plate that was marked as a 10-4 dilution and you used 0.1ml to inoculate the plate. What is the population density of the original sample? Please Show Work.....
Homework Answers
To find the original sample population density, divide the conted colonies by the dilution factor and the inoculate:
= 73/ (10-4 * .1)
= 73 X 105
Thus, the original sample's population density was 7.3 X 106 or 73 X 105.

You have performed a serial dilution of a sample with an unknown concentration of microorganisms. You counted 55 CFU on a countable plate inoculated with 0.1 mL of a 10-3 dilution. What was the population density of the original sample per milliliter? Many of the quantitative methods discussed are popular because they enable the microbiology researcher to selectively count live cells only. Why do you think this might be an important or desirable feature in a medical or environmental research...

Explain this example of the following water quality serial dilution. Note the dilution factors and how you would calculate #;s from the incubated plates. A serial dilution yielded TBTC in the 1:1 plate and the 1:10 plate, 10 cfu’s in the 1:100 plate and 1 cfu’s in the 1:1000 plate. What is the concentration (CFU)/ml of the raw sample? Is water acceptable for portable or Recreational use? Explain. When do you use your filtration rather than serial dilution?
