You have 0.5 ml of a patient's serum and you need to make a 1:100 dilutions of it in saline. How much saline would you add to your sample to accomplish that?
Please show work on how to solve. Thank you.
1:100 dilution means that 1 part of original (stock solution) is mixed with 99 parts of dilutent (or solvent) to make final volume of 100 part. 1:100 dilution can also be written as 1/100
Volume of original solution/total final volume = 1/100 (because given dilution ratio is 1/100)
Therefore Total final volume required = 100 × 0.5 ml = 50 ml

What are the resulting dilutions? Notice units of measurement. a) b) c) 500 L of serum is diluted to 2.0 mL 50 uL of whole blood is pipetted into 0.95 mL of diluent 500 mL of liquid K is added to 4.5 L of water 7. If 10 uL of urine is added to 90 uL of water, and the resulting solution is brought to a final volume of 0.50 mL with water, what is the final dilution...

so: 1 ml stock 10 ml final -0.5 mL of stock -5 ml final volume While I have used 1:10 as a standard the same rules apply for all dilution factors. Try these problems: x 0.5 X0.5 1. You need to make a 1:25 dilution factor. If you final volume is 25 mL this means that you need_ _mL of stock and mL of solvent to make your final volume of 25 mL. 2. If you needed...
You start with a 4M stock solution of NaCl, you need to make dilutions to obtain various working solutions. Describe how you would make 100 mL of a working solution that has a final concentration of 1M. Be sure to include the volume and concentration of the components.
1. You have been asked to make a 1:5 dilution of 20mL of patient sample. The final volume should be 100mL. Which of the following outlines the correct way to make this dilution? For the other answer options, explain why they are incorrect. A. 10mL of patient sample added to 40mL of saline B. 10mL of patient sample added to 50mL of saline C. 20mL of patient sample added to 100mL of saline D. 20mL of patient sample added to...

Problem solving Question: 1. If you were to serially dilute a sample with three 1:10 dilutions, what would be the final dilution of the last tube? 2. If you add 1 ml of sample to 99 ml of water, and then add 0.1ml (100pl) to the agar plate what is the dilution of the sample on the plate? 3. If you count 98 colonies on the 10-5 plate, how many bacteria/ml were in your sample? 4. What are three ways...
You have 5ml of an overnight culture (2x108 cells per ml). How would you prepare a series of 1 or 10 ml dilutions (maximum 1:100) to obtain a final 200 ml culture at 1x103 cells/ml? Show your work for each step
You have a stock solution that contains 24 mg/ml of protein. You want to make a set of standards with the following concentrations: 12 mg/ml, 6 mg/ml, 3 mg/ml and 1.5 mg/ml. You need a minimum of 500 ul of each standard after all dilutions are completed. Using the technique of serial dilution, explain how you would make your standards by filling in the chart below.
