What are two reasons serial dilution is a useful technique for counting populations of bacteria?

1. it is reproducible, because you know what your dilution factor is, in every step. You can always calculate back how many bacteria you started with.

2. it is great to see how many bacteria you have if you do not know the bacterial concentration in your original sample! An unknown sample might have anything ranging from 0 bacteria per ml to one million bacteria per ml. If you make 10-fold serial dilutions, you only need to test about 7 dilutions to have an accurate estimation how many bacteria were in your original sample
