Result
Counting colony-forming units (CFUs) from the sample.
This measurement, related to cell concentration of the culture, can be used to calibrate OD600 to colony forming unit (CFU) counts.
We measured and dilute our overnight cultures to OD600=0.1, and we checked the OD600 to ensure we have diluted to 0.1.Also,we did this in triplicate for each culture.
