Draw out the serial dilution you will need to make using an original concentration of 10^8 and the Total Dilution Factors as 2, 4, 8, and 16.
Serial dilution is a process of sequential dilutions of a solution to reduce it's concentration levels.
A two fold serial dilutions reduces the concentration of solution by two factor i.e by half.
In the given information the concentration of solution is 10^8.
So two fold dilution results as below
10^8------10^4-------10^2----------10^1
Draw out the serial dilution you will need to make using an original concentration of 10^8...
You carry out a serial dilution of a bacterial culture, using dilutions of ⅕, ⅕, 1/100, and 1/10. Then you plate 100 µl of the final dilution and the next day observe 200 colonies on your plate. What was the concentration of the original culture? (5 pts)
13. A 1/2, fourfold serial dilution was performed. The original concentration of the analyte was 1200 μg/dL. What is the concentration of the analyte in the final tube? 7. Calculate the true analyte value given the following information: Analyte diluted using 10 μL into 90 μL diluent; Diluted analyte value = 85 mg/dL.
1. Make a 10 fold serial dilution of a protein to achieve a final concentration of 10ug/ml You are staring from a 10 mg/ml protein stock. Indicate the amount of sample needed (from previous tube) and the amount of H20 needed. Make your calculations for 100μ1 volume. (0.5pts) 10ul 90μ1 H20 10mg/ml lmg/ml
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...
Serial Dilution Questions
1, Serial dilution Questions: a) (5 pts) Suppose you begin with stock solution of dye that has a concentration of 350.0 mg/L and do the following set of serial dilutions on it: 5.00 mL of stock diluted to a total volume (TV) of 500.00 mL (Dilution 1); 2,00 mL of Dilution 1 is then diluted to a TV of 250.00 mL (Dilution 2); finally, 1.00 mL of Dilution 2 is then diluted to a total volume of...
In lab you carried out a serial dilution and calculated the concentration of each solution. Starting with a 2.05 M HCl stock solution, three standard solutions are prepared by sequentially diluting 5.00 mL of each solution to 150.0 mL. What is the concentration of the final solution? 0.0683 M 2.28 times 10^-3 M 9.11 times 10^-6 M 7.59 times 10^-5 M 2.53 times 10^-6 M
You need to do a four-step serial dilution from a urine sample. The end volume for this 10-fold dilution is 3,000ul. Draw and label (amount of sample, amount of diluent, and dilution factor). (4 points)
One component of the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration experiment is the creation of an antibiotic serial dilution. In this assignment, you are to determine the appropriate dilution from the original stock needed to reach the final concentration of antibiotic in 1 mL of media. In your experiment, you are to add only 10 mu L of antibiotic to the media. You are given the starting concentration of the antibiotic (the stock solution) and the final concentrations needed. The first three answers...
Using a serial dilution with three steps, how can you make a 1:5000 dilution? Show two different approaches you can take (each using three steps/dilutions). Could someone please guide me through the steps of how to solve this dilution problem? I'm at a loss as to where to start
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?
