Need help calculating cell number to plate

23 January 2013 - 02:43 PM

Hi,

I know this is a no brainer but I am struggling and the formula that I have been using I think is wrong.  I have used a hemacytometer and have calculated it this way before, but now I am using an automated cell counter and not sure if I am taking everything into consideration.  

I want to plate 1x10^5 cells into a T-25 flask with a final volume of 10 mls.  My cell sample is 20 ul into 20 ml of isoton (1/1000).  The cell counter accounts for this dilution.  I am trying to conduct proliferation experiments to determine doubling time.  Is there a specific formula to calculate this.
