Please calculate a numbers of cell/ml from the information table 2.

Transcribed Image Text:Cell counting calculation
Basic hemacytometer formula
Neubauer Hemacytometer
Calculation
Number of cells counted X dilution factor
total volume of the cells counted
total volume - # primary squares x 0.1 (deptn)
Cells X dilution = cells/uL
squares X 0.1
This formula can be used with any counting
chamber as long as one knows the
dimensions for the chamber

average live cells x dilution factor
volume of a square (mL)
Cell density (cells/mL) =
i.
Example calculation
Given information bellows:
No of yeast cells in 14 grids (yellow grids) = 210
No cells in average = 210/14
= 15 cells
Dilution factor = 1
Total volume = Area x Depth
= 0.04mm? x 0.1mm (From haemocytometer)
= 0.004mm3
= 4.0 x 106 ml
Cells/ml = (15cells x 1) /4.0 x 106 ml
%3D
= 3.8 x 10° cell/ml
