Yu peepels is smort! i'm guessing it's just the ratio of, say, a bacterial culture to what it's dispersed in. Is that close? WAIT Schwamm.... crowny might be about to break laws of physics here... we might want to stand back. Obviously we know nothing... dillution... nope can't figure it out here.
-B :P I know all about dillusion, but little about dillution. |

Ok, so think dilution factors from your bacteria class. We are working on probiotics (the good for you bacteria found in yogurt and a ton of other things these days). So the numbers on these are in the millions and billions so you have to do quite a few dilutions to get to a countable range, right? And it is all based on your initial dilution factor of say 1:10 or 1:100 right? So a company we are working for is doing their own in house and we are getting 200-300% higher than they are on the serving size. So we got on the phone today, with them, to talk about the method. They are taking an entire either 7 or 15 gram pack and dumping it into 100mls of DI water. Then doing their dilutions from there. We were taking 1 gram or product into 100mls DI water and going from there. Our initial dilution is 1:100. Theirs is either 7:100 or 15:100. Here is where it gets fun. She isn't taking into account the different ratios. She is just calculating back as if it were a 1:100. AND, when we asked her how she took into account the differences in dilutions, she said there wasn't a significant difference between the two, mathematically!!!! Huh?!?!?! Wha, wait WHAT?!?!?! So you are telling me that there is statistical difference, when weighing out samples, at 7 grams and 15 grams?!?!?! Is this new math?!??! So I told them to send us exactly how they calculate their dilutions, using examples of colonies on a plate and back calculating and we will compare this to how we do it. Seriously. And this person is in charge of their in house lab!!!!!!!! HOW DO PEOPLE GET THESE POSITIONS!?!?!?!?! Uh...yeah. 15:100 is close to 1:10, but that's an order of magnitude off from 1:100. You're going to get a big difference. I related this to the people I work with and they all gave the "you've got to be kidding me" look. One suggested you ask them to define "statistical" and "difference" for you.
It is such a good thing we don't have teleconferencing capabilities. If they could have seen the look on my face as this idiot said that, I think I would have upset them. I almost fell out of my chair. I literally got up, walked away from the phone (others were on it with me, fortunately) so I could calm down. |

Of course, Ryan, if you were to actually TRAIN you might not need to drink diet and captain... c'mon... knock it off... -B Well.. you have a point there. However, I also think it tastes better. Regular coke is too sweet. I never drink soda, except in mixed drinks. It IS kinda embarassing to order... Agreed. Diet tastes better with Cap'n ... plus it's low cal. SO shaddup, fatties! |
