"series dilution" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
It is used to describe the process of diluting a sample repeatedly in order to obtain a set of concentrated and diluted samples at known concentrations. For example, "The laboratory technician performed a series dilution on the serum sample to achieve the desired concentrations."
Bacteria were screened from the consortium by tenfold series dilution method.
This study focused on bacterial growth dynamics in the series dilution of water samples with TOC (total organic carbon) values determined beforehand.
We found a dose-dependent increase of the intensity of fluorescence following with the concentrations of CA72-4 in series dilution (from PBS as control, 2, 5, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 IU/mL), which also showed the lower limit to 5 IU/mL (Fig. 5a).
Ct values of series dilution of input samples (0.05%, 0.2% and 1% input) were used to generate standard curves.
For accuracy, the specific activity was considered to be acceptable, only if the equation was based on at least three consecutive points in a two-fold series dilution fashion and had the linear regression coefficient R2 > 0.96.
Amplification efficiency of each primer set was determined by the series dilution method [ 58], which can be calculated by the slope of the curve made from each Ct value and the dilution factor (Additional file 7: Table S4).
The concentration of PrPc was estimated by reference to a standard curve established with a series dilutions of sheep recombinant prion protein purified from E coli [69].
To test for amplification efficiency, series dilutions of the control samples were analyzed.
Briefly, 100 μl series dilutions of control standard endotoxin or APS extracts were mixed with 100 μl TAL reagents.
A 10-fold serial dilution series of the plasmid DNA standard, ranging from 1 × 10 to 1 × 10 copies, was used to construct the standard curve (5 points series dilutions).
After 12 h, series dilutions of compounds (nanovesicle, PEG-polyserine, acetone, and ethanol) ranging from 1.2 to 0.1 mg/mL were added into wells.
