Answer :)

From many experiments, dilution of 1 ml river water to 50 ml dilution, makes the water clears from the coliform and other harmful bacteria, mostly. Therefore, in the membrane filter technique, 1:50 dilution is preferred. In some countries, 1:100 dilution is preferred where excessive contamination is present.
