Serial Dilution Lab
I have a lab on serial dilution and it's asking for two real world uses for accurate dilutions and I'm stumped...I can't think of anything even though it's a pretty simple question. Can anyone help?

You can use it for spread plating, as usually if you use the pure culture broth you'll have too many cell colonies to count (and ultimately get an inaccurate count) so you dilute by factors of 10 and plate them.

Thing is, I don't understand it fully so I can't expand on it.
I probably didn't. May you care to enlighten me? And if it's on bacteria growth or something like that, I saw it already.
you didn't search properly, i'm sorry.
It doesn't matter I guess. I'm having a really derpy moment right now.
Aha I tried Google and it came up with nothing useful.
basil is not your google
