Hi all,
I'm going to make a growth curve by transferring 1-mL volumes from 25 mL of flask liquid culture into a cuvette to measure OD600. I don't want to keep throwing away the contents inside the cuvette because I want to make measurements once every half-hour to an hour.
So what is the aseptic technique for transferring volumes from the flask to the cuvette, if any? Also, can I transfer the 1-mL of liquid culture in the cuvette back into the culture?
Thanks!
