Answer:

Explanation:

Bacterial count in stock- 1.85x10^6 cfu/ml

Dilution methods

Take 100 uL or (0.1ml) from stock and add to 900ul (0.9ml) saline and mixed it- this makes 10^1dilution.

Now take 100ul from 10^1 dilution and add to next 900ul saline this is 10^2 dilution, similarly do upto 10^5 dilution.

Then take 100ul from 10^ 4 and 10^5 dilution seperately and plate on LB agar plate seperetely and count the colonies.

Cfu/ml formula= (No.of colonies x dilution factor)/0.1 ml

So suppose, 18 colonies formed on 10^4 dilution then total no. Of cells in stock will be 18x10^4/ 0.1= 18x10^5 cfu/ml.

If we dilute 10^4 or 10^5 that's leads to colony count of 18-19 colonies on 10^4 dilution while 2 colonies should come on plate of 10^5 dilution.

Andrews [41]

The 5 ounces of beef strip steak would count as 5-ounce equivalents in the Protein Foods Group.  

Al the foods made from poultry, meat, seafood, peas and beans, eggs, processed soy products, seeds, and nuts are regarded as the component of the Protein Foods Group.  

Steak, like any other animal product, is a rich source of protein. A 5 oz serving of steak gives 38 grams of protein, more than 6 times of the amount in one egg. The proteins help in repairing muscles and other tissues and also helps in building muscles.
