There are good commercial freeze drying medium/buffers for this purpose however in Africa not all laboratories and institutions can afford their cost in the long term on a sustainable basis.
You can try commercial freeze drying solutions. If not affordable, use of glycerol in the preservation set-up is considerable.
You can try 1:1 mix with 30% glycerol (sterile). That has always worked for me in different labs.
I think best one is the sterile glycerol.
I want to know how to estimate bacterial counts in the original sample from its serial dilutions when (a) two plates from successive dilutions are counted, (b) one plate from two successive...
