In place of dilutions made by pipettes, a series of loops or rings on a platinumneedle can be employed which hold a, known quantity (small) of the materialto be examined. 116 THE CULTIVATION OF MICROORGANISMS To obtain a satisfactory count the colonies should be about 100 to 200 to aplate. Lower numbers than this are too few to give a fair average, highernumbers are difficult to count because the colonies have not sufficient space for.
