Answer:

8900 CFU/mL

UFC is the minimum number of separable cells on the surface, or inside, of a semi-solid agar medium that results in the development of a visible colony of the order of tens of millions of descending cells. The CFUs can be pairs, chains or clusters, as well as individual cells. Colony forming unit.

Calculation

Colonies * Dilution = CFU/mL

89          *  (100/ 1 mL) = CFU/mL

8900 CFU/mL
