Abstract Background Since the ISO standard 20776-1 and serial dilution procedures were compared in 2010 for fluconazole and itraconazole, several new antifungals that are hydrophobic and highly potent have been introduced. Objectives To investigate the impact of the number of tip changes during serial dilution, and ISO and serial dilution for nine antifungals. Methods EUCAST E.Def 7.3.2 with serial (0–10 tip changes) and ISO dilution. Candida parapsilosis ATCC 22019, Candida albicans ATCC 64548, C. albicans CNM CL-F8555, Candida krusei ATCC 6258, Aspergillus flavus ATCC 204304 and clinical isolates (n = 5) of C. albicans, Candida dubliniensis, Candida glabrata, C. krusei, A. flavus and Aspergillus terreus were included. GM MICs were compared for ISO and serial dilution and with QC values where available. Results Increasing the number of tip changes (0/1/2/10 times) during serial dilution for plate preparation increased the MICs 1 to >2 dilutions for amphotericin B, anidulafungin, micafungin, fluconazole, voriconazole and isavuconazole against C. albicans ATCC 64548 but only isavuconazole MICs against C. parapsilosis ATCC 22019 (3 dilutions). ISO and serial dilution (two tip changes) were compared for eight compounds and four Candida QC strains (352 MICs). Six/41 GM MIC pairs deviated with 1–1.8 dilution (14.6%). Comparing the GM MIC with the QC values, the ISO method GM MIC was closest to the target in 30.8%, the serial dilution in 34.6% and the methods identical in 34.6% of the cases. Finally, ISO and serial dilution MICs were compared for clinical isolates (920 MICs). Five/23 GM MIC pairs (21.7%) deviated 1.0–1.1 dilutions. Conclusions The ISO and serial dilution (two tip changes) method were in acceptable agreement and thus equally applicable for EUCAST testing.

Abstract:
The need for a multiple-target compound selectivity programme led to the establishment of a single robotic system that produces a compound's serial dilution and its distribution to multiple replicate assay plates. A Genesis RSP 150 integrated into a Zymate Laboratory Automation System XP produced the serial dilutions, and the subsequent replicate assay plates were produced quickly and accurately by an efficient use of the carousels and rapid plate. Currently, this process allows for the production of over 200 serial dilution assay plates in a workday.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Conventional screening for circulating antinuclear antibodies (ANA) is generally performed by immunofluorescent (IF) microscopy with a 1:40 dilution of serum. Intensity of IF staining is then semiquantitated by using twofold serial dilutions, where the highest dilution in which staining intensity equals the endpoint control is expressed as an endpoint titer. The PolyTiter Immunofluorescent Titration system (Polymedco, Inc.) facilitates ANA-IF assay (IFA) testing by relating the intensity of IF staining to reference calibrators (defined in PolyTiter units), providing an endpoint titer directly from a 1:40 dilution. This study was conducted to assess the performance characteristics of the PolyTiter system. Two technologists each evaluated 10 replicates of three specimens and two controls on five sequential days. Endpoint dilution agreement (defined as ±2 dilutions) with the reference was 100% for all controls and for all specimens by one technologist. The second reader reported agreement of 98, 88, and 100% for the low, medium, and high specimens, respectively. Analysis of PolyTiter unit values yielded between-reader, between-run, and within-run precision coefficients of variation of less than 10%. The variance component in the lot-to-lot analysis was zero, indicating all of the variation was due to run-to-run differences. Overall endpoint dilution agreement between PolyTiter and serial dilution in the evaluation of 125 specimens at three sites was 90, 93, and 86%. Pattern identification with the PolyTiter was similar to that with serial dilution. The PolyTiter system demonstrates acceptable performance for routine ANA-IFA testing in the clinical laboratory.

Abstract:
The ability to generate a range of concentrations of various solutions rapidly and conveniently is an ongoing need in biotechnology. In this thesis we demonstrate how we took advantage of the full process control afforded by our recent custom high resolution 3D printer and resin advances to realize highly integrated and miniaturized microfluidic components for simultaneous on-chip serial dilution for dose-response assays. With judicious selection of mixed layer thicknesses and pixel-by-pixel dose control, we show that the diameter of 3D printed membrane valves can be reduced from 300 µm to 46 µm. We further introduce an entirely new kind of 3D printed valve, termed a squeeze valve, in which the active area is reduced still further to 15 µm x 15 µm. We demonstrate and characterize pumps based on each type of valve and introduce a short (<1 mm long) high aspect ratio channel that enables rapid diffusion-based mixing. We show that combining two pumps with this diffusion mixing channel results in a highly compact 1:1 mixer component. Connecting 10 of these components in series yields a miniature 10 stage 2-fold microfluidic serial dilution module that from two solution inputs simultaneously generates 10 output concentrations that cover three orders of magnitude. We show the efficacy of our serial dilution approach by demonstrating an assay for dose-dependent permeabilization of A549 cells in different concentrations of digitonin integrated into a single device. Our demonstration of component miniaturization in conjunction with a high degree of integration illustrates the promise of 3D printing to enable highly functional and compact microfluidic devices for a variety of biomolecular applications.

Abstract:
In recent years there has been an increased interest in inquiry-based learning, also known as experiential learning or problem-based learning, as a more appropriate model of teaching science. The purpose of this study was to incorporate inquiry-based learning in a college sophomore-level General Microbiology Laboratory. The goal of this laboratory course is to introduce students to basic techniques and procedures necessary for the study of microorganisms. Laboratory sections were randomly assigned to an experimental group or a control/reference group. The experimental group was taught the concept of serial dilutions using an inquiry-based learning approach whereas the control group was taught using traditional teaching methods. Analysis of the data generated from the students' involvement in the investigation during the fall semester indicated that the experimental group had a slightly greater improvement in their knowledge of serial dilution. The study continued in the spring semester and involved close to 300 students. During the spring semester both the experimental and the control groups had similar attitudes about their learning experience as evaluated by a Lickert Scale survey. However, a statistical analysis of the quiz scores of the students with values within the interquartiles indicated the experimental classes' quiz scores were significantly higher on quiz 2 taken at the midpoint in the study. Thus an inquiry-based learning approach was found to be beneficial to the middle 50% of the class.

Abstract:
Humanpatogena stammar av bakterien Yersinia enterocolitica kan orsaka akut gastroenterit. För identifiering av bakterien odlas fecesprover ut på CIN-agar. På senare år har en kromogen agarplatta framtagits som differentierar mellan patogena och apatogena stammar av Y. enterocolitica. Syftet med studien är att jämföra och utvärdera två CIN-agar, med agarbaser och supplement från två olika företag (Liofilchem och Oxoid), och CHROMagar Y. enterocolitica (CHROMagar). Odling av fecesprover samt seriespädning av sex Y. enterocolitica stammar och en Y. pseudotuberculosis utfördes. Vid utodlade fecesprover jämfördes växt och hämning av övriga bakterier. Vid seriespädning räknades antal kolonier på plattorna för respektive spädning, samt utseende av kolonier på plattor bedömdes. Resultatet tyder på att skillnad av hämningseffekt av Y. enterocolitica och utseende på kolonierna finns mellan de två CIN-agarplattorna. Oxoid’s CIN-agar erhöll större kolonier, lägre hämningseffekt av Y. enterocolitica och detektionsgräns än Liofilchem’s CIN-agar. På CHROMagar-plattan växte de patogena stammarna med bleklila kolonier och de apatogena stammarna med blåa kolonier. Hämningseffekt av Y. enterocolitica hos CHROMagar-plattan är densamma som Oxoid’s CIN-agar. Slutsatsen är således att Oxoid’s CIN-agar och CHROMagar har samma hämningseffekt av Y. enterocolitica men CHROMagar differentierar mellan patogena och apatogena stammar. Liofilchem’s CIN-agar har högre hämningseffekt än CHROMagar och Oxoid’s CIN-agar.
Pathogenic strains of Yersinia enterocolitica can cause acute gastroenteritis in humans. To identify the bacterium, cultivation of stool samples on CIN-agar are performed. A chromogenic medium has been developed that differentiate between pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains of Y. enterocolitica. The purpose is to compare and evaluate two CIN-agar, with agar bases and supplements from two companies (Liofilchem and Oxoid), and CHROMagar Y. enterocolitica (CHROMagar). Growth of stool samples and serial dilutions of six Y. enterocolitica strains and one strain of Y. pseudotuberculosis were performed. Comparisons of the growth and inhibition of other bacteria were done for the stool samples. Colonies for each dilution were counted and appearance of the colonies was evaluated. The result indicates that a difference in inhibitory effect on Y. enterocolitica and appearance of colonies exist between the two CIN-agar. All strains grew with larger colonies on Oxoid CIN-agar than on Liofilchem’s. Oxoid CIN-agar and CHROMagar have a lower inhibitory effect on Y. enterocolitica than Liofilchem’s. On CHROMagar, the pathogenic strains grew with mauve colonies, whilst the nonpathogenic strains grew with blue colonies. Thus, the conclusion is that CHROMagar and Oxoid CIN-agar have less inhibitory effect on Y. enterocolitica than Liofilchem’s. CHROMagar can differentiate between pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains.

Abstract:
Dissertation submitted in partial compliance with the requirements for the Master's Degree in Technology: Homoeopathy, Technikon Natal, 2001.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of high and ultra-high dilutions (ranging from 10-8to 10-400)of Abscisic acid (ABA) on the synthesis of a-amylase in barley seed endosperm halves (Hordeum vulgare Stirling, ex Caledon, Western Cape, South Africa, 1999 harvest), in order to determine whether these dilutions are able to produce biological effects, as homoeopathic theory would maintain they are (Gaier,1991:445-447). A further aim of this study was to evaluate the role of succussion in the preparation of homoeopathic medicines. Central to the preparation of homoeopathic medicines is the principle of potentisation, which is a method of dilution that is unique to homoeopathy. It involves serial dilution with intervening mechanical agitation, called succussion, between each dilution level (Kayne, 1997:49). At each progressive stage of dilution the concentration of the solute diminishes, often beyond the point at which Avogadro's dilution limit of 6.022 X 1023 marl is exceeded, so that theoretically no solute molecules remain in the solution (Gaier, 1991:47-48). Homoeopathic theory maintains that remedies thus prepared do not lose their therapeutic power in the process of dilution, but that due to the intervening succussion, their efficacy is in fact enhanced. Hence succussion is considered to be the process that sets homoeopathic dilutions apart from simple dilutions, Kayne (1997:49) states that, 'This agitation is vitally important to the therapeutic efficacy of the remedy; dilution alone is not sufficient to produce the phenomenon'. In order to evaluate the role of succussion this study utilised five centesimal serial dilutions; the 4th, 9th, is'. so' and 200t \ which represent deconcentrations ranging from 10-8to 10-400, which dilution levels also span Avogadro's dilution limit. One series was prepared by diluting the ABA with intervening succussion and the other series was prepared by diluting the ABA without intervening succussion. The effects of these two methods on the production of a-amylase were then compared.

Abstract:
The ability to obtain deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) profiles is generally considered a powerful tool when examining evidence associated with a crime scene. However, variability in peak heights associated with short tandem repeats (STR) signal complicates DNA interpretation; particularly, low-template complex mixtures, which are regularly encountered during evidentiary analysis. In order to elucidate the sources that cause peak height variability a dynamic model, which simulates; 1) the serial dilution process; 2) polymerase chain reaction (PCR); and 3) capillary electrophoresis (CE) was built and used to generate simulated DNA evidentiary profiles. In order to develop the dynamic model, PCR efficiencies were characterized. This was accomplished using empirical quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data. Specifically, the ratios of fluorescent readings of two consecutive cycles were evaluated. It was observed that the efficiency fluctuated at early cycles; stabilized during the middle cycles; and plateaued during later cycles. The relationship between the change in efficiency and the concentration of amplicons was modeled as an exponential function. Subsequently, this exponential relationship was incorporated into the dynamic model as a part of the PCR module. Using the dynamic laboratory model, the effect of serially diluting a concentrated DNA extract to a low-template concentration was assessed in an effort to determine whether serially diluted samples are a good representation of evidence samples which contain low copy number of cells. To accomplish this, peak height variances and the frequency of drop-out between serially and non-serially diluted samples were compared. The results showed that diluting the sample had a substantial influence on allelic drop-out. However, the distributions of the observed peak heights did not consistently change; though, changes in peak height distributions became more pronounced with samples at lower targets. The peak height equivalency (PHE) was also used to aid in the determination of the effect of serial dilutions on reproducibility. There was not a major change in PHE between serially and non-serially diluted samples.

This chapter provides a detailed example of SAXS data analysis from a well behaving system. After collecting the SAXS data, several data analysis procedures are illustrated to ensure the data were of sufficient quality. Many of these steps are performed by comparing multiple concentrations from a dilution series, demonstrating the importance of this step in the data collection procedure for ensuring high quality data. Finally, real space modeling and shape reconstructions are shown to determine the oligomeric state as a tetramer, and identify the correct oligomeric assembly from crystal packing predictions.

Abstract:
This collection of forty original essays reflects on the history of adaptation studies, surveys the current state of the field, and maps out possible futures that mobilize its unparalleled ability to bring together theorists and practitioners in different modes of discourse. Grounding contemporary adaptation studies in a series of formative debates about what adaptation is, whether its orientation should be scientific or aesthetic, and whether it is most usefully approached inductively, through close analyses of specific adaptations, or deductively, through general theories of adaptation, the volume, not so much a museum as a laboratory or a provocation, aims to foster, rather than resolve, these debates. Its seven parts focus on the historical and theoretical foundations of adaptation study, the problems raised by adapting canonical classics and the aesthetic commons, the ways different genres and presentational modes illuminate and transform the nature of adaptation, the relations between adaptation and intertextuality, the interdisciplinary status of adaptation, and the issues involved in professing adaptation, now and in the future. Embracing an expansive view of adaptation and adaptation studies, it emphasizes the area’s status as a crossroads or network that fosters interactive exchange across many disciplines and advocates continued debate on its leading questions as the best defense against the possibilities of dilution, miscommunication, and chaos that this expansive view threatens to introduce to a burgeoning field uniquely responsive to the contemporary textual landscape.

Abstract:
Assays for clotting activities of Vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors in Factor IX complex concentrates are IcnovTn to give variable results depending on the composition of the sample diluent. Higher potency values are obtained when deficient plasma is used for sample pre-dilution compared with dilution in buffer. This discrepancy is more pronounced in assays of higher purity Factor IX (FIX) or Factor X (FX) concentrates. We have found that addition of a mixture of bovine albumin (0.1% w/v) and Tween 20 (0.01% v/v) (BAT) to the dilution buffer can eliminate the discrepancy, giving clotting times and plot slopes equal to chose obtained upon dilution in deficient plasma. Less protection was obtained with either albumin or Tween added separately. Polyethylene glycol 8000 (0.1% w/v), commonly used to stabilize thrombin solutions, gave variable results. BAT had no effect on clotting times of whole plasma or of FIX or FX samples pre-diluted in deficient plasma. Neither deficient plasma nor BAT had any effect when added after sample dilutions were prepared: activity of a FIX concentrate was 137 U/ml when pre-diluted in Factor IX-deficient plasma and 1312 U/ml diluted in BAT, compared with 49 U/ml diluted in buffer alcne; addition of deficient plasma or BAT to the dilutions of sample in buffer gave activities of only 36 a).id 34 U/ml, respectively. Similar results were obtained with FX samples. Furthermore, when a solution of FX (pre-diluted to 1 U/ml in buffer without stabilizer) was merely transferred from one test tube to another without further dilution, clotting times increased progressively and activity decreased by 85% after 8 transfers. By contrast, an identical sample diluted to 1 U/ml with BAT remained essentially unchanged after 8 serial transfers. These results indicate that Vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors are very susceptible to surface adsorption or inactivation after dilution of concentrates, and that either BAT or deficient plasma will prevent this loss. The use of albumin and Tween as stabilizers provides a simpler, .less expensive alternative to prevent nonspecific surface adsorption and achieve more accurate measurement of clotting activities.

Abstract:
Internal corrosion sometimes occurs under deposits of solid particles on the bottom of transmission pipelines. The solids trap water with soluble products and other nutrients which can support the development of microbial communities and may lead to Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC). Corrosion processes associated with the metabolic activities of specific bacteria have been discussed elsewhere, but the simple presence of large microbial populations may increase the risk of internal corrosion owing to the ability of biofilms to extract and concentrate water at the pipe floor. As a method to monitor the internal corrosion threat in transmission pipelines and recommend mitigating activities for corrosion management, reliable microbial content and corrosion activity correlations are desired. Sludge samples have been obtained from cleaning pigs at the pipe trap and analyzed using Biological Activity Reaction Test (BART™) (or serial dilution test), Dean-Stark analysis, XRD and EDX. These tests provide information about certain bacterial populations, water / solid / hydrocarbon content, and crystalline/elemental composition of these solids, respectively. Despite best efforts, bacterial population/activity of pipeline sludge samples exhibit high variability and are difficult to correlate to actual internal corrosion in a pipeline. Considering that bacterial populations in pipeline sludge may be a meaningful representation of the internal corrosion threat to a transmission pipeline, a more rigorous approach on the sludge sampling procedure is necessary to improve the accuracy and reliability of the bacterial assays. It is also important to control such variables as storage temperature of the samples, exposure to air, and storage duration prior to enumeration — as these may affect the viability of the sample and enumeration results. This report presents historical pipeline sludge analysis data and suggests a method to evaluate data containing high variability. Practical recommendations to reduce data variability through handling and storage of sludge samples are also discussed.
