Below is the data collected from a closed-system growth curve of V. natriegens at varying salt concentrations (0 mM, 50 mM, 250 mM, and 1000 mM NaCl). Using the OD 600 nm values and the McFarland standard curve, determine the number of bacterial cells/mL at each time point.
Once you've calculated the number of bacterial cells/mL, plot the growth curves of V. natriegens in BHI with 0 mM, 50 mM, 250 mM, 1000 mM salt (# bacterial cells/mL versus time). These graphs MUST be plotted using SEMI-LOG graph paper. Growth curves can either be plotted on one graph or 4 separate graphs. All graphs should be properly labeled. Y-axis = # bacterial cells/mL and the X-axis = time (min). Semi-log graph paper is available on Canvas. You may also choose to use Excel.
