SUMMARY

To determine the significant difference between the values 1.7×10^5 and 1.49×10^6 in cells/mL, a statistical formula is required, specifically one that accounts for multiple measurements. The discussion emphasizes the necessity of having at least three measurements for each data point to accurately assess significance. The provided range indicates that 1.7×10^5 is the lowest and 1.7×10^6 is the highest concentration, which suggests a need for careful statistical analysis to interpret these results correctly.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of statistical significance testing
  • Familiarity with basic statistical formulas, such as t-tests or ANOVA
  • Knowledge of data collection methods and measurement replication
  • Experience with interpreting scientific data and graphs
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the application of t-tests for comparing means of two groups
  • Learn about ANOVA for analyzing differences among multiple groups
  • Study the importance of sample size and replication in experiments
  • Explore statistical software tools like R or Python for data analysis
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, biostatisticians, and laboratory technicians involved in experimental design and data analysis, particularly in fields requiring quantitative comparisons of biological measurements.

can someone give me a fomula to determine the significant difference of the difference in cells/mL in the sample our graph shows 1.7×〖10〗^5 and 1.49×〖10〗^6 how do i find if these numbers are significantly different?
I know this is very broad and really doesn't give you much to work with but all i can give you is also the range of our answers and that is 1.7×〖10〗^5 is the lowest and 1.7×〖10〗^6 is the highest data point

thank you so much again

To determine significance you need to have at least 3 measurements at each datapoint. The range you give is for different datapoints (different concentrations), isn't it?
