Dilution Tables

Here are some common dilution strategies used when making treatment vials.

5 - Fold Dilution - 5 mL Vials - 1:20 w/v Glycerinated Extract:
1:2 Dilution - 10mL and 5mL Vials:
Used for example, when you want to convert a 1:10 w/v into a 1:20 w/v or if you want to convert 10,000 BAU to 5,000 BAU. It should be noted that the same effect can be achieved by giving half the volume.
1:5 Dilution - 10mL and 5mL Vials:
Used for example, when you want to convert a 1:20 w/v into a 1:100 w/v or if you want to convert 10,000 BAU to 2,000 BAU.
