if 0.1 mL of a 10^-2 dilution is spread on a agar plate, what dilution will it be considered when calculating the original number of cells in the sample?

Expert Solution

When calculating original number of cells 100 times dilution will be considered

Calculation of number of bacteria per ml= number of colonies X 10 ² (dilution factor) X 10 ( this is for calculating the number of cells in 1 ml, since 0.1 ml of a 10^-2 dilution was taken for plating)
