Statistical study of the spot-plate technique for viable-cell counts.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A statistical study of the spot-plate technique was made for the purpose of establishing an acceptable counting range. The organism used in these studies was Micrococcus lysodeikticus. Standard deviations and coefficients of variation were computed for counts ranging from 20 to 440. The lower and upper limits for acceptable counts, based on coefficients of variation of 10 and 5.8, respectively, were chosen as 100 and 300.

Although the application of biodegradative genetically engineered micro organisms (GEMs) for bioremediation is very promising, the risks of their release should be assessed before their introduction into the environment. Lux-marked Ralstonia eutropha H850Lr (formerly Alcaligenes eutrophus H850Lr) was introduced into sterile and non-sterile soil microcosms at matric potentials ?2.11, ?30, ?750, ...

متن کاملPlate Loop Method for Determining Total Viable Count of Orange Juice1
The plate loop count as described in Standard Methods for the Examination of Dairy Products, 13th Edition, was investigated as a simplified technique for determining total viable counts in single strength orange juice. This pro cedure requires the use of standardized loops (0.01 and 0.001) for making serial dilutions in stead of pipets and dilution bottles. Data have been presented to show ther...

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the antitumor effect and antioxidant role of Mucuna pruriens (Family: Fabaceae) against EAC bearing Swiss albino mice. The effect of methanol extract of Mucuna pruriens (MEMP) on tumor growth and hosts survival time was studied by the following parameters: tu-mor volume, packed cell volume, viable and non-viable cell count and life span of the host. M...
