Method |
Culture turbidity (optical density) was measured spectrophotometrically
a 600 nm (OD600).
Numbers of viable cells were determined by the plate
count method on the bacterial or yeast medium. Value extracted manually from fig. 2 |
Comments |
The optical density of yeast and bacterial cultures is due to light scattering, not absorption. Therefore it is sensitive to the geometry of the detector relative to the cuvette, as well as the size and shape of the cells. You really have to calibrate each spectrophotometer for each strain. |
