Elaine: what is the conversion rate for 200ppm active bacteria in terms
of counts? How many bacteria are account to 1 ug of bacteria in dry
weight?

The bacteria are counted, length and width measured, and biovolume
calculated. Bacteria in general have about the same bulk density, and
so convert to biomass.

Not weighed.

Dry weight basis, figure bacteria are about 80% water.

<><><><><><<>Hey Dave, So using the above calculation(example) the
bacteria are weighed. Is that right? 200ppm active bacteria in 25
gallons water weigh 0.67 oz. Would they be dried or as is, basis?
That's interesting. Dennis
