In this video, we will show you how to perform serial dilution, a common technique used in microbiology to measure bacterial growth. We will explain the importance of serial dilution and walk you through the steps involved in performing it. You will learn how to prepare the dilution series, plate the diluted samples, and calculate the bacterial cell count. We will also discuss the potential sources of error and how to avoid them. We also show how to perform serial dilution calculation. At the conclusion of this video, you will have a thorough understanding of the process involved in performing a serial dilution to measure bacterial growth, including the steps required to perform serial dilution calculations to determine colonyforming units (CFU).
