Calculate the total number of bacteria in your yogurt container three times (in duplicate). Begin by choosing a dilution plate that has 30-300 colonies on its surface. This will be your #CFU's/#ml #CFU's x Dil Factor x Tube 1 total vol (ml) x yogurt container mass (g) = total # of bacteria in yogurt (g) in Tube 1 yogurt container #ml 1 4. Since you have two plates with the same dilution (duplicates), calculate the total number of bacteria in your yogurt two times. Circle your three answers. Make sure to include the correct values with your numbers. 5. Average your two answers above for a more accurate representation of the total number of bacteria in your yogurt container.

1 mL of a juice sample is taken and diluted in 9 mL culture medium, subsequently, this suspension is analyzed in the Petroff-Hausser chamber, determines that the total number of bacteria found is 44 bacteria per square, if the chamber has 25 squares, how many bacteria are in the chamber? initial juice sample?
What would the final concentration of a bacteria culture be if 2.7 x 106 cells/ml were diluted 8.2 x 10-2? What would the initial concentration of a bacteria culture be if the final concentration was 3.7 x 102 cells/ml and the total dilution was 4.6 x 10-4?
From a soup sample, 1 mL of sample is taken and diluted in 99 mL of soup medium. culture, later, this suspension is analyzed in the Petroff-Hausser chamber, It is determined that the total number of bacteria found is 53 bacteria per square, if the chamber has 25 squares, how many bacteria are found in the chamber? initial juice sample?
) If you counted 500 CFU’s in the petri dish for number 6 and 5000 CFU’s in petri dish for number 7, what would be the most justifiable explanation for this? 19) If the original sample’s concentration was 12 bacterial cells, what do you expect the count to be?
A 0.00001 dilution is performed on a culture of bacteria in order to perform viable plate counts. From the dilution, *0.1 mL* of solution is plated on solid media, and 223 colonies of bacteria grow on the petri dish. Assuming each colony came from a single bacterium, how many bacteria are in a single mL of the original culture? Express your answer to two decimal places using exponential notation. Since only 0.1 mL is put on the plate, this counts as an extra dilution!!! Any time less than 1 mL is transfered, a dilution is being performed. Any time more than 1 mL is transfered, a concentration is being performed.
A 10-5 dilution is performed on a culture of bacteria in order to perform viable plate counts. From the dilution, *0.1 mL* of solution is plated on solid media, and 278 colony forming units grow on the plate. How many bacteria are in a single mL of the original culture? Express your answer to two decimal places using scientific notation. In scientific notation 540 would be written as 5.40*10^2. Since only 0.1 mL is put on the plate, this counts as an extra dilution!!! Any time less than 1 mL is transferred, a dilution is being performed. Any time more than 1 mL is transferred, a concentration is being performed. Include the trailing zero so there are two decimal places Canvas expects a single digit before the decimal point. 5.40*10^2 is how Canvas expects 540 to be formatted in scientific notation 54.00*10^1 would be marked wrong. 0.54*10^3 would be marked wrong. A 10-5 dilution is performed on a culture of bacteria in order to perform viable plate counts. From the…
In Figure 5-3, if the concentration of bacterial cells inthe original suspension is 200/ml and 0.2 ml is platedonto each of 100 petri dishes, what is the expected average number of colonies per plate?
You measure your E. coli and find them to have an OD600 of 1.20. You have 50 ml of culture, and you know that there are 2.5x109 cells per 1.0 OD600. Based on this information, how many E. coli cells are present in the culture you’re about to centrifuge?
You were asked to prepare a dilution series of a bacterial culture where only 3 tubes will be used (all with 5 mL total solution). Draw a schematic diagram to make tube 1 have a 10-2 dilution, tube 2 have 10-3 dilution, and tube 3 to have 10-5 dilution You were instructed to dilute an antibiotic solution 1/10, redilute 1/25, and again 1/50, then you need to make 100mL of each dilution. How would you go about preparing this dilution series? (Present your answer in a schematic diagram)
In an experiment to calculate the decimal reduction time for an Escherichia coli culture, viable cells were exposed to a constant temperature of 80°C for a set amount of time. After exposure, the remaining number of surviving cells were counted. Based on Table 1, what is the decimal reduction time?Table 1. Decimal Reduction Time for E. coli Heated to 80°C Total time of exposure (minutes): Number of Microbial Cells Present: 0 100 1 80 3 50 4 42 6.5 26 13 10 21 0
The images attached are the photos of bacteria in yoghurt under a misroscope. According to these images and your own knowledge, can you make a biological drawing of bacteria in yoghurt ( in a circle) and identify the types of bacteria accurately?
Describe how you would make 10 ml of a 1:500 dilution of bacteria by performing TWO SEPARATE DILUTIONS in series? Consider the accuracy of the pipetting so that you don’t make a single dilution that is too large.
