You were tasked to determine the total microbial load of a bread sample. The sample was homogenized, and 25 g of sample was weighed. This was immediately placed in a flask containing 225 mL diluent and gently shaken to mix. From this, 10 mL was taken and transferred to a 90 mL diluent. A 10-fold* serial dilution was performed and samples from 10-4, 10-5 and 10-6 was pour-plated in triplicates. *the final total volume is 10 mL a.Draw a schematic diagram illustrating the proposed experimental setup described above
