| Method |
Calculated using Avogadro's constant and cell volume=10^-12 cm^3=10^-15 liter (Average of 10 measurements in table from Primary source, BNID 100 004). 1 particle/10^-15liter=X particles/liter>>X=10^15 particles/liter 10^15(particles/liter)/6×10^23(particles/mole)=1.666×10^-9M=~1 nM. |
| Comments |
For 1molecule/cell=10nM concentration in bacterial cell see Luby-Phelps 2000 PMID 10553280 p.191 top paragraph (this order of magnitude difference from value above comes from calculation of smaller bacterial cell, BNID 105905). |
