You dilute a natural sample 10-4, plate 100 microliters, and observe 200 colonies on the plate. what was the initial concentration, in units of cells/ml?
100 microliters = 0.1 ml
Number of cells observed = 200
Dilution = 10-4
Initial concentration of cells = 200 x 1/10
= 200 / 10 = 20 cells/ml

D Question 9 2 pts You have 10-4 colonies/mL (concentration) of bacteria and you plate out 10 microliters. Your plate has a concentration of 10° colonies/mL. O True False 2 pts D Question 10
Problem solving Question: 1. If you were to serially dilute a sample with three 1:10 dilutions, what would be the final dilution of the last tube? 2. If you add 1 ml of sample to 99 ml of water, and then add 0.1ml (100pl) to the agar plate what is the dilution of the sample on the plate? 3. If you count 98 colonies on the 10-5 plate, how many bacteria/ml were in your sample? 4. What are three ways...
you perform three 1:3 dilutions from a stock solution. You then remove 100 microliters from your last test tube and plate on a nutrient agar plate. You count 167 colonies post incubation. What was the concentration of the original culture (CFU/mL)? a45090 b4509 c6.9 d16700
4. From a culture of M. luteus, you take 10 L and dilute it into 9990uL of sterile water. From this dilution, you take an aliquot of 10uL and plate it onto fresh agar. The following day, you observe 96 colonies on the plate. What is the original CFU/mL of your culture of M. luteus?
After making a serial dilution a tank water sample, you plate 100 ul of the 10-4 After incubating, you count 90 colonies on the plate. What is the CFU/ml? Write out your calculations, briefly, along with your final answer.
You want to dilute and plate an E. coli culture that has 3 *10 8 cells/ml. If you needed to dilute the above culture, starting from the undiluted stock, to a concentration of 500 cells/ml, how could you perform a serial dilution to achieve the desired final concentration?
questions 6 and 7 please with work 6. (2 points) You dilute an unknown sample of bacteria to 1x 10- and plate out 10ul onto a Petri dish. The next day you count 64 colonies. The number of viable bacteria in the original sample was a. 6.4 x 105 cells/ul b. 6.4 x 106 cells/ul, Answer: C. 6.4 x 10' cells/ul d. 6.4 x 108 cells/ul 7. (2 points) A sample of bacteria was diluted to 1x 10 and 10ul...
You have a stock of an E. coli cell culture of an unknown concentration. You want to set up a serial dilution experiment so that you can count the viable colonies and determine the concentration of the stock in cells/ml. In tube A, you add 1 ml of the stock to 999 ml of media. In tube B, you add 1 ml of the material from tube A to 24 ml of media. In tube C, you add 50 microliters...
your lab manual for instructions, Sample plated Number of colonies on plate TMTC 430 4th plate 5th plate 6th plate 75 Which plate has the countable number of colonies? What is the dilution factor that produced that plate? • What is the correction factor for the volume? How many cfu/ml are in the culture, based on your calculations? 4. Suppose you plated 1 ml of a 10-7 dilution (tenfold dilutions) of a bacterial broth culture
A. You have been given a tube of E. coli. You are asked to make 1 mL total volume of 10-1 dilution of the bacterial culture. Explain how you would do this. Show all necessary calculations. ____ ml cells + _____ ml water = 1 ml (total volume) B. Next, you were asked to make a 10-2 dilution of the bacterial sample. Explain how you would perform this. Show all necessary calculations. You have bacteria at a concentration of 2...
