    Please I have a Q, might be silly. now after counting it plate, tube (f) looks has low count, but after calculation it will be 10*8 in compared to tube (e). Does it mean higher count (f)?

      @biologyexams4u  Před 2 lety

      Hi Mandeep
      Phosphate buffered solution or isotonic saline solution (0.85%)is commonly used as both wont causes osmotic shock..other diluents is Sterile distilled water . Often the selection of diluents depends on the further procedure and also the type of microorganisms ... Like for cell count or for subculturing..
