COMPUTATIONAL TRUE OR FALSE
Milk sample A contained an average of 53 cells per FOV at a dilution factor of 7 whereas Milk sample B contained an average of 99 cells per FOV at a dilution factor of 5. Therefore, milk sample A has less microbial contamination. (Note: 0.01mL of each sample was placed on a clean glass slide and both samples were examined under OIO with an area of 1.77x10-4 cm2.)
