How do you measure bacteria in a petri dish?
When bacteria is grown in an Agar plate, one quantitative method to measure growth is using a counting chamber. Another method is using viable plate counts.
What are the limitations and advantages of standard plate count?
The standard plate count is performed so that the number of microorganisms found in a single gram of food can be determined. To be considered standard, there needs to be a minimum of 25 colonies on the plate.
Why direct microscopy and plate count give not a same counts?
Direct microscopy counts viable and non-viable cells, whereas plate count only counts viable cells that are able to grow and form colonies on agar plates. Additionally, plate count may underestimate the total number of viable cells due to factors like the inability of certain cell types to grow under specific conditions or the formation of aggregated cells that do not separate easily on the agar plate.
What is the disadvantages of air transportation?
Not Cost effective.....only viable for expansive commodities but not voluminious
Genetically engineered insulin advantages and disadvantages?
Zade Lunat *the advantage is that it is the only viable source of clinical quantities of human insulin. Before it's FDA approval for Genetech patients would inject animal insulin purified from animal tissue. Disadvantages? From the frame of mind that is the ONLY source of externally provided human insulin it is hard to attribute disadvantages.
How do you compute colony forming unit per plate?
1.Direct Microscopic Counts (DMC) for both viable and nonviable cells
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the serial dilution agar plate procedure?
Both force you to read your lab manual.
WHY IS THE VIABLE PLATE COUNT TECHNIQUE CONSIDERED TO BE AN INDIRECT MEASUREMENT OF CELL DENSITY WHEREAS THE TURBIDIMETRY METHOD IS NOT COUNT AT ALL?
the viable plate technique refers to the number of viable cells in the plate. it called indirect method as some of cells that contribute to cell density may not viable. meanwhile turbidimetric method only count the cell density of microbial cell population, not count the number of cell. it monitored the changes of population by measuring the opacity of growth medium which will become more opaque as the cell numbers increase.
What is payback period method?
Payback period method is the strategy used to calculate the amount of time that a given investment will take to recover the initial cost. The amount of time will help in deciding whether the project is viable or not. The shorter the period the more viable the project.
What are the disadvantages of building a theme park in Scotland?
The population isn't high enough to make it a viable enterprise.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of coal liquefaction?
Coal liquefaction offers advantages such as providing a liquid fuel alternative to crude oil, which can enhance energy security and diversify fuel sources. It can also utilize abundant coal reserves, potentially reducing dependency on imported oil. However, disadvantages include high costs, significant greenhouse gas emissions, and environmental concerns related to mining and water usage. Additionally, the technology is energy-intensive and may not be economically viable without supportive policies or high oil prices.
What are the advantages of worst-fit algorithm?
It can be used in computer programming. It helps you to see which options are not viable and would not help out the situation.
