Testing team

OD calibration

  • Carried out 10-4 and 10-6 dilutions
  • Carried out on ice
  • Used 3 OD values: 1, 0.7 and 0.4
  • Conclusions:
    • Too many colonies on 10-4, too few on 10-6, 10-5 seems to be the most appropriate
  • Suggestions:
    • Dilute using factors: 10-4, 10-5 and 10-6 with 100uL inoculation
