By the way, I’m answering questions like this for my hw. One of the questions is “stefanie and Bradley are lab partners. Using a 10^-2 dilution, Stefanie counts 57 cells in a Petroff-Hauser chamber. Bradley counts 63 cells using the same dilution. What was the average number of cells per mL in the original sample? assuming 25 squares and standard volume.” So I already know how to do answer this kind of question thanks to your video. But I’m not sure how many mL of the dilution they put on the plate or what they mean by “standard volume.” Could you help me with this? It’s for my microbiology class.

Amazing explanation !! I just have one enquiry Why would we have errors if we chose a plate with less than 30 bacterial colonies ?
@ProfGillesBolduc4 жыл бұрын
There’s an increase of error because we’re dealing with small numbers. If you have a plate with 10 colonies and a second one with 20 colonies, this isn’t big a difference until you start multiplying and the small error now becomes multiplied.
@iana66594 жыл бұрын
What type of error are you referring to when you mentioned the small error ? I mean error due to what ?
@ProfGillesBolduc4 жыл бұрын
It’s all mathematical. There’s less of a difference between 250 CFU and 275 CFU than if your talking about the difference between 5 and 30 CFU. If you count either 250 or 275CFU from a sample diluted 10^6 times than your answer is either 2.5 x10^8 CFU or 2.75 x 10^8 CFU. But if you use data values such as 5 or 30 CFU from a sample that’s similarly diluted 10^6 than your calculated answers would be either 5 x 10^6 or 3 x 10^7 which are more different. Thus there’s a bigger error between to two answers. To make your data more accurate you would average data from triplicate plates with CFU between 30 and 300. This is pretty much standard in most labs. I sometimes hear that scientist will use plates with CFU counts between 20 and 200.

Thank you very much! I would ask, should we always transfer 0.1 ml to the plate? or can I transfer the same volume that was transferred between each tube of dilutions? I hop you get my question
@ProfGillesBolduc4 жыл бұрын
You can transfer any volume on a plate. But anything more than 0.1 ml might add too much liquid to the plate and the bacterial colonies may run into each other as they grow. This makes it difficult to count them efficiently. I generally like to use a volume between 0.05 - 0.1 ml.

During the time between 9-10 min for the dilution series, if you add 1 ml in 9.9ml of culture, the factor is 1/10?? or do you mean 0.1 ml in 9.9ml!!! Please let me know, if i am wrong?

That is not correct. 1ml (from tube 1) was added to tube 2 (containing 9ml). Tube 2 was mixed a bit and 0.1ml from tube 2 was than added to tube 3 (containing 0.9ml).
