Describe how to make 10ml of a 1:25 dilution from a 1 times 10^12 cells/ml stock. What is the resulting cell concentration? Solution = 1/25 Step 1 Take one part stock and add 4 parts water to get 1/5 dilution i.e. 1x 10 12 cells/ml/ 5 = 0.2 1x 10 12 cells/ml Step 2 Now take one part stock of this cell suspension and add 4 parts water to get 1/5 dilution leading to 1/25 dilution. = 0.2 x 10 12 cells/ml/ 5 0.04 xx 10 12 cells/ml the total volume will be 10 ml b) = 4 x 10 10 cells/ml this is the final cell concentration..
