What is the differences between a streak plate technique and a serial dilution technique?

A streak plate technique is used to isolate individual bacterial colonies on a solid agar plate to obtain pure cultures, while a serial dilution technique is used to dilute a bacterial sample in a series of steps to obtain a range of concentrations for further analysis. Streak plate technique is qualitative, focusing on colony isolation, while serial dilution technique is quantitative, focusing on estimating bacterial concentration.
